Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of laser processing such as laser marking and etching. Specifically, it relates to a 355nm F-theta ultraviolet field lens optical path construction device. Background Art

[0002] Due to the small thermal effect, 355nm ultraviolet laser shows great advantages in the fields of marking and etching of some special materials such as silicon wafers, thin ceramic sheets, textiles, and polymer films. The design of the ultraviolet field lens is greatly affected by the transmission efficiency of optical materials. It is difficult to design a field lens with a large beam diameter, a large scanning field of view, and low F-theta distortion.

[0003] The existing F-theta ultraviolet field lens optical paths mostly adopt a (-+++) four-lens component configuration. After retrieval, the patent documents CN101236291 A and CN105527706 A respectively disclose representative optical path configurations. For the first lens component in the beam incident direction, a double concave lens component is mostly used, and the fourth lens component is a double convex or plano-convex lens component. In this optical path configuration, the divergence angle of the beam is relatively large after passing through the first lens component, and the focal length of the fourth lens component is relatively short, which is not conducive to the control of field curvature and aberration. The patent document CN207181801 U discloses a (-++) three-lens component configuration, a 355nm ultraviolet field lens with a convex-concave lens component as the first lens component in the beam incident direction. However, due to the use of only three lens components, its aberration is relatively large. Therefore, a flat protective glass is used for further aberration correction. The aberration and F-theta distortion of this configuration are still difficult to be ideally controlled. The Nd / Vd = 1.52 / 1.64 flat glass used in the implementation has problems such as strong light absorption and poor thermal stability. Summary of the Invention
