Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of density sheet testing, in particular to a linear testing device for variable density optical filters. Background technique [0002] The variable density filter is a special filter whose optical density changes according to a specific rule with the position, and its function is to adjust the light energy of the optical system. Variable density filters are not only adjustable in optical density, but also neutral in spectrum. They are widely used in various precision optical systems, such as spectral detection, light display, optical fiber communication, precision microscopic system, biomedical detection and other fields. The variable density filter is a key component in various optical systems to adjust the contrast of the detection system and improve the performance of the signal-to-noise ratio. Divided according to the form of optical density change, there are six common variable density filters: circular variable...

Problems solved by technology

Due to the large beam spot of the spectrophotometer, there are generally fewer points that can be measured, and the accuracy of the measurement results is low; while the small size filter cannot be measured, so it cannot be produced.

In addition, there is no precise mechanism for the equal division movement of the filter, and it is indexed by printing paper tape, so the positioning during measurement is not very accurate.

During the linearity test, the inspector has to repeatedly move the filter and record the measurement data. After several rounds, it is easy to
