Problems solved by technology

[0004] However, the femtosecond laser has a very short processing time for material removal, and current measurement methods cannot obtain instantaneous material shape changes. Existing measurement methods are still based on traditional measurement techniques, such as axial monitoring based on laser triangular displacement sensors, back-coherent Tomography monitoring, optical coherence tomography monitoring and other methods have resolutions at the submicron level; confocal-based measurement technology has extremely high application potential in femtosecond laser processing, confocal or differential confocal axial monitoring The means have nanometer-level axial resolution, and have high focus accuracy and measurement stability. For example, a laser micro-nano processing differential confocal online monitoring integrated method and device disclosed in patent CN108286936A solves the problem of femtosecond Drift problems during laser processing, high-precision real-time focus problems, and online detection of femtosecond laser processed samples, but the measurement object of this invention is still the sample shape on the macro time scale, and it is impossible to monitor the instantaneous shape change when the material is removed process
