Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to a laser manufacturing device and method, and in particular to a laser three-dimensional body manufacturing device and method for complex structures. Background Art
[0002] Femtosecond laser processing technology can be used for cutting, drilling, etching, hidden cutting, through-glass via (TGV), laser grooving (low-k), etc. of semiconductors, new display devices, silicon carbide, gallium nitride silicon PCB / FPC, ceramics, electric vehicle glass, automotive head-up display glass, LCP / MPI antenna, PET film, etc. Its processing principle is that after the laser is focused into the material, when the pulse energy exceeds a certain threshold, due to the different energy density, the material in the focused area will be subjected to permanent structural modifications such as optical coloring, refractive index change, micro-holes, and micro-cracks. Femtosecond laser processing technology can be applied to the preparation of photonic micro-devices with various functions. For example, femtosecond laser regulation of ion valence changes can be applied to erasable and rewritable optical storage, femtosecond laser-induced medium refractive index changes can be used for the preparation of optical waveguide devices, femtosecond laser-induced micro-holes can be used for the preparation of three-dimensional photonic crystals, and femtosecond laser microstructure manufacturing can be used for microfluidic channel manufacturing. Among them, femtosecond laser direct writing optical waveguide is a device that uses femtosecond laser to irradiate transparent materials, modulate the laser incident power, cause the refractive index of the material in the laser focus area to increase or decrease, and make the light wave produce total reflection at its interface and be confined to propagate in the waveguide, thus forming a three-dimensional waveguide device; photonic crystal uses femtosecond laser to directly induce micropores for array construction, multiple femtosecond laser interference to form a periodic structure, and femtosecond laser induced two-photon polymerization, thereby forming a type of artificial electromagnetic medium material composed of two or more materials with different dielectric constants arranged in a periodic repetition; in terms of microfluidic processing, femtosecond laser direct writing technology is used in combination with acid solution corrosion to accurately and efficiently prepare continuous three-dimensional micro-nano channels inside transparent media, which can accurately manipulate extremely small amounts of liquids, thereby realizing the integration of microscopic chemical and biological analysis systems, which is more efficient and time-saving than traditional photolithography methods.
[0003] Femtosecond laser processing technology includes femtosecond laser direct writing processing and femtosecond laser multi-axis scanning processing:
[0004] Femtosecond laser direct writing relies on multi-axis motion platform processing, focusing the laser on a single point, and realizing the three-dimensional complex structure by relying on the multi-axis motion platform to drive the relative movement of the processed components. This manufacturing system is complex and expensive. Since the multi-axis motion platform is an inertial motion component, its movement speed is limited, and the accumulation of multi-axis motion will lead to an increase in the accumulated motion error, so the processing efficiency and accuracy need to be improved.
[0005] Femtosecond laser multi-axis scanning processing uses two-dimensional, three-dimensional scanning galvanometers, piezoelectric ceramics and other methods to realize the scanning of the light beam in space to realize the processing of three-dimensional structures on the surface and inside of the material. Although the scanning rate is improved compared to the motion platform type, the scanning rate is still limited based on the principle of mechanically controlling the reflector to achieve beam deflection.

[0050] Beneficial effects of the present invention:
[0051] 1. The laser three-dimensional body manufacturing device and method for complex structures provided by the present invention can accurately control the processing position of the processing laser through the beam position preset unit and the optical relay compensation unit, thereby improving the processing accuracy; in addition, the device is also provided with an acousto-optic modulation unit, which can control the number and spatial position of sub-beams by loading electrical signal amplitude modulation of different and / or the same frequency, and form synthetic light fields of different shapes (square, trapezoidal, circular, etc.), different spot sizes, and different energy distributions (homogenized, Gaussian) for laser processing by adjusting the spatial positions between each sub-beam. This improves the laser processing efficiency and processing quality.
[0052] 2. The laser three-dimensional body manufacturing device and method for complex structures provided by the present invention can realize the three-dimensional body manufacturing of complex microstructures without relying on a multi-axis motion platform, thereby improving the flexibility and convenience of laser processing; existing three-dimensional morphology laser processing technologies, especially internal material processing, all need to rely on the spatial motion of a multi-axis motion platform; the present invention adjusts the number, energy and spatial position of sub-beams through an acousto-optic modulation unit, thereby avoiding a complex trajectory programming process.
[0053] 3. For complex morphological structures such as elliptical or waisted structures, the existing laser manufacturing devices need to repeatedly move the laser in space for processing, and cannot be formed in one go. Especially for the processing of the internal structure of the material, the same position of the material needs to be irradiated multiple times, resulting in serious laser thermal effects. The femtosecond laser three-dimensional body manufacturing device and method for complex structures provided by the present invention only needs to be processed once, which greatly suppresses the thermal effects (recasting, cracks, recrystallization, etc.) on the surface of the material, reduces the roughness of the surface of the material, and greatly improves the processing efficiency and quality.
[0054] 4. The present invention is provided with an acousto-optic modulation unit capable of adjusting the spatial position of each sub-beam, and only one-dimensional motion platform is required to realize three-dimensional processing, with small cumulative error. Especially for three-dimensional processing inside the laser, the use of multi-axis motion will introduce equivalent glass plates of different thicknesses due to its spatial motion, and then the spatial position error of the focus inside the material will also be a variable, which introduces a variation error between the theoretical position of the focus inside the material and the actual focus position, resulting in an error in the final processed morphology. The laser processing device and method provided by the present invention has a constant focus position for each part of the material, and complex morphology preparation is achieved by changing the focal spot size, with few error sources and high precision.
