Abstract

The invention discloses a method and a device for measuring a refractive index of a curved optical component based on Brewster's law, and belongs to the field of optical precision testing. A concentrated laser beam is used instead of a small-diameter parallel laser beam as incident light. Extended beam laser is focused on the apex of a surface of the medium to be tested. The problem caused by beamdivergence is eliminated with a smaller spot area. Reflected light intensity distribution is obtained by using an area array detector. The DC of light intensity minimum detection is converted to thedarkest position of laser dark spot detection, and accurate quantification for Brewster's angle is realized by using digital image processing, which is insensitive to time-varying stray light and motion errors, thereby solving a precision problem caused by motion. At the same time, the time for a single measurement is shortened, thereby achieving accurate measurement for refractive index parameters of the curved optical component. Compared with a traditional Brewster's angle measuring device, the device of the invention has a simpler structure, and device costs and measuring time are reduced while effectively improving the measuring precision.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method and a measuring device for measuring the refractive index of a curved surface optical element, in particular to a method and a measuring device for measuring the refractive index of a curved surface optical element based on Brewster's law, and belongs to the technical field of optical precision testing. Background technique [0002] The optical refractive index of a medium is a physical quantity used to describe the degree of deceleration of the speed of light in a medium relative to that in a vacuum. For an optical system, the refractive index of its optical components directly affects the performance of the optical system. With the development of modern science and technology, the performance requirements of optical systems are increasing day by day. Therefore, the accurate measurement of the optical refractive index of optical components is also very important. [0003] Using the Brewster's angle method to measure ...
