Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of precision measurement and sensing technology, and in particular to an automated multifunctional calibration device and method for a spectral confocal displacement sensor. Background Art
[0002] Spectral confocal displacement sensors are widely used in industrial inspection applications such as distance measurement, thickness measurement, and topography measurement. Typical applications include wafer surface inspection, glass thickness measurement, roughness measurement, and lens profile detection. Spectral confocal displacement sensors offer advantages such as high precision, non-contact operation, and adaptability to materials with varying reflectivity. However, in actual measurement, the sensor's spot size and the maximum measurable angle when measuring curved surfaces significantly impact its effectiveness. Furthermore, during probe assembly and dispensing, the non-repeatability of technicians' operations can lead to deviations in the lens position of different probes, resulting in differences in the measurement optical path and inaccurate measurement results.
[0003] To ensure the measurement accuracy and performance of spectral confocal displacement sensors, high-precision instruments are required, and efficient calibration methods are used to calibrate the sensor's linear error, spot size, and limit measurement angle. Traditional calibration methods can only calibrate linear error during a single calibration. Calibration of spot size and limit measurement angle requires the probe to be disassembled and calibrated with additional instruments. The diversity of calibration parameters and the complexity of the calibration process greatly limit the production efficiency of spectral confocal displacement sensors. In addition, probes with different ranges and measurement angles have different sizes. In order to accommodate spectral confocal sensors of different sizes, the probe clamping device and probe posture adjustment device must also be universal and interchangeable. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The purpose of the present invention is to overcome the problems existing in the prior art and provide an automated multifunctional calibration device and method for a spectral confocal displacement sensor. In the same calibration system, the calibration of multiple parameters of the spectral confocal probe is completed. When calibrating different parameters of the spectral confocal probe, the transformation of the probe posture is achieved through electric control, which greatly improves the degree of automation of the probe calibration and the work efficiency of the calibration technicians.
[0005] In order to achieve the above technical objectives and the above technical effects, the present invention is implemented through the following technical solutions:
[0006] An automated multifunctional calibration device for a spectral confocal displacement sensor, comprising:
[0007] A laser interferometer, wherein a laser feedback module is provided on the emission light path of the laser interferometer so that the laser emitted by the laser interferometer is returned by the laser feedback module to measure the position of the laser feedback module;
[0008] The laser feedback module is arranged on a first electric motion platform and is controlled to move by the first electric motion platform. A linear calibration reflector is provided on the first electric motion platform, and the first electric motion platform controls the linear calibration reflector to move synchronously with the laser feedback module, so that the positions of the laser feedback module and the linear calibration reflector are relatively fixed;
[0009] The linear calibration reflector reflects the white light emitted by the spectral confocal probe to characterize the displacement measurement value of the spectral confocal probe and achieve comparison with the displacement measurement value of the laser interferometer;
[0010] A second electric motion platform is provided on one side of the first electric motion platform and is perpendicular to the first electric motion platform. A probe horizontal angle adjustment platform is movable and controlled on the second electric motion platform.
[0011] The spectral confocal probe:
[0012] It is installed on the probe horizontal angle adjustment platform and its rotation is controlled by the probe horizontal angle adjustment platform, and is used for extreme angle measurement and spot size measurement;
[0013] Or it can be set on the probe fixing table for linear calibration.
[0014] Furthermore, an extreme angle calibration platform is provided on the outer side of the probe horizontal angle adjustment platform. When measuring the extreme angle, the probe horizontal angle adjustment platform adjusts the light outlet of the spectral confocal probe to align with the extreme angle calibration platform. A calibration checkerboard is provided on the inner side of the probe horizontal angle adjustment platform, and the calibration checkerboard is controlled by the first electric motion platform to move in a direction perpendicular to the second electric motion platform. After the extreme angle measurement is completed, the probe horizontal angle adjustment platform controls the rotation degree of the spectral confocal probe so that its light outlet is aligned with the calibration checkerboard, so that the calibration checkerboard can return the spectral confocal probe measurement beam to perform spot size measurement.
[0015] Furthermore, the probe fixing platform is arranged at the outer end of the first electric motion platform, so that the laser interferometer, laser feedback module, linear calibration reflector, and spectral confocal probe are located on the same straight line, and the measurement beam of the laser interferometer is collinear with the measurement beam of the spectral confocal probe for linear calibration.
[0016] Furthermore, the extreme angle calibration platform is rotatably arranged on a corresponding frame, so that the angle of the extreme angle calibration platform relative to the spectral confocal probe is adjustable.
[0017] Furthermore, the probe fixing platform clamps the spectral confocal probe through the V-shaped groove provided thereon, so as to be suitable for spectral confocal probes of different lengths and diameters.
[0018] Furthermore, the spectral confocal probe is communicatively connected to the spectral confocal controller via an optical fiber, and the spectral confocal controller is communicatively connected to the host computer via a network for data acquisition. The host computer is respectively connected to the first electric motion stage, the second electric motion stage, the probe horizontal angle adjustment stage, the extreme angle calibration stage and the laser interferometer for controlling the corresponding actions to adjust the posture.
[0019] A detection method using a multifunctional automated calibration device for a spectral confocal displacement sensor, the method comprising limit angle measurement and spot size measurement, wherein:
[0020] The limit angle measurement method is as follows: when the optical axis of the spectral confocal probe is not perpendicular to the limit angle calibration platform, the maximum angle that the limit angle calibration platform can rotate relative to the vertical position is the limit angle, the host computer controls the rotation of the limit angle calibration platform, and at the same time sends an instruction to the spectral confocal controller to read the displacement measurement data. When the measurement data of the spectral confocal controller jumps to an invalid value, the host computer reads the angle of the limit angle calibration platform. ,angle This is the limit measurement angle of the spectral confocal probe;
[0021] The spot size measurement method is as follows: a calibration checkerboard is controlled by a first electric motion stage to move in a direction perpendicular to the optical axis of the spectral confocal probe, and a host computer sends an instruction to the spectral confocal controller to read the light intensity. The calibration checkerboard consists of black and white squares. The spectral confocal probe measures the light beam, and the light intensities reflected by the squares of different colors on the calibration checkerboard are different. The spot size is measured and calibrated based on the jump in light intensity at the junction of black and white squares.
[0022] Furthermore, the method also includes linear calibration, and the linear calibration method is:
[0023] First, the spectral confocal probe is fixed on the probe fixing platform so that the measuring beam of the spectral confocal probe is collinear with the measuring beam of the laser interferometer. The first motorized motion stage controls the linear calibration mirror to move along the measuring beam of the spectral confocal probe. The peak positioning algorithm is used as the positioning criterion to determine whether a valid measurement peak is detected. The linear calibration mirror is positioned at the near end and far end of the measuring range of the spectral confocal probe.
[0024] After locating the near and far ends of the spectral confocal probe's range, the midpoint between the far and near ends is used as the zero point, and the measurement values of the laser interferometer and the spectral confocal probe are reset to zero. Then, the linear calibration mirror is controlled by the first electric motion stage to move to the near end of the spectral confocal probe's range. The step distance of the first electric motion stage is set to d, the movement speed is set to v, and the actual range of the spectral confocal probe is taken as D. Then, n = D / d measurement positions are sampled within the full range of the probe during the scanning process.
[0025] The host computer controls the first electric motion stage to move step by step from the near end of the measuring range to the far end of the measuring range. Each time it steps to a measuring point, the host computer samples the spectral confocal controller and the laser interferometer and saves the samples to the host computer.
[0026] After the full-range scan is completed, the displacement measurement deviations of the spectral confocal probe and the laser interferometer at n sampling points are obtained.
[0027] Furthermore, after obtaining the displacement measurement values of the spectral confocal probe and the laser interferometer at all sampling points, a nonlinear relationship between the displacement measurement values of the spectral confocal probe and the displacement measurement values of the laser interferometer is obtained by spline curve fitting. Then, equal-interval sampling is performed between the near end and the far end of the spectral confocal probe range. A mapping calibration table between the displacement measurement values of the spectral confocal probe and the displacement measurement values of the laser interferometer is generated through the nonlinear relationship. The mapping calibration table is uploaded to the spectral confocal controller, thereby greatly improving the measurement accuracy of the spectral confocal displacement sensor.
[0028] The beneficial effects of the present invention are:
[0029] The present invention realizes the calibration of the linear error, limit measurement angle, and spot size parameters of the spectral confocal probe in the same calibration system. The transformation of the probe posture is achieved through electric control. The position or angle of the electric control calibration mechanism can be fed back to the host computer, which greatly improves the automation level of probe calibration and the work efficiency of calibration technicians.
[0030] The linear error calibration result can generate a mapping calibration table as compensation for the displacement measurement value of the spectral confocal sensor, thereby greatly improving the measurement accuracy of the spectral confocal displacement sensor.
[0031] The extreme measurement angle calibration results can be used as a reference for the normal direction adjustment range when the spectral confocal sensor measures the surface topography.
[0032] The spot size calibration results can be used as a reference for the lateral resolution of spectral confocal sensors in measuring roughness, micro-groove depth, and other scenarios.
[0033] Multiple parameters of the spectral confocal probe can be calibrated in the same system, and the parameter calibration results can be used to provide timely feedback on whether there are any problems with the spectral confocal probe assembly, effectively improving the yield rate of spectral confocal probe production.

[0041] A laser interferometer 1, wherein a laser feedback module 2 is provided on the emission light path of the laser interferometer 1 so that the laser emitted by the laser interferometer 1 is returned by the laser feedback module 2 for measuring the position of the laser feedback module 2;

Therefore, the displacement of the laser feedback module 2 measured by the laser interferometer 1 can also be regarded as the displacement of the linear calibration mirror 8;
[0043] The linear calibration reflector 8 reflects the white light emitted by the spectral confocal probe 10 to characterize the displacement measurement value of the spectral confocal probe 10 and achieve comparison with the displacement measurement value of the laser interferometer 1;

In this embodiment, Figure 3 As shown, when the extreme angle calibration platform 6 is in the initial position, it is perpendicular to the measuring beam 14 emitted by the spectral confocal probe 10, and the measuring beam 13 emitted by the spectral confocal probe 10 is reflected by the extreme angle calibration platform 6 and returns along the original path; when the extreme angle calibration platform 6 is in the tilted position, the measuring beam 13 emitted by the spectral confocal probe 10 is reflected by the extreme angle calibration platform and no longer returns along the original path, and the reflected beam 14 returns at a certain angle to the original beam. When the reflected beam is within the receiving range of the spectral confocal probe 10, measurement can still be performed at this time; when the tilt angle continues to increase, there will be an angle When the angle is greater than this, the reflected light beam 14 will exceed the receiving range of the spectral confocal probe 10.

The spot size measurement is achieved by the stepping movement of the calibration checkerboard 7. The spot size measurement can be measured in two perpendicular directions. In this embodiment, Figure 4As shown, the calibration checkerboard 7 is controlled by the first electric motion stage 3 to move in a direction perpendicular to the optical axis of the spectral confocal probe 10.

When performing linear error calibration, the first electric motion platform 3 controls the linear calibration mirror 8 to move over a large range along the collinear direction of the laser interferometer 1 and the spectral confocal probe 10. When performing spot size calibration, the first electric motion platform 3 controls the calibration checkerboard 7 to move over a small range in a direction perpendicular to the second electric motion platform 4, so that the calibration checkerboard 7 can return to the measuring beam 13 of the spectral confocal probe 10. The second electric motion platform 4 can control the movement of the spectral confocal probe 10 so that the calibration checkerboard 7 is within the measuring range of the spectral confocal probe 10.
[0051] The extreme angle calibration platform 6 is rotatably disposed on a corresponding frame, so that the angle of the extreme angle calibration platform 6 relative to the spectral confocal probe 10 is adjustable.

The host computer 12 is respectively connected to the first electric motion stage 3, the second electric motion stage 4, the probe horizontal angle adjustment stage 5, the extreme angle calibration stage 6 and the laser interferometer 1 for controlling the corresponding actions for posture adjustment, wherein the first electric motion stage 3 and the second electric motion stage 4 can be controlled by the host computer 12 to perform linear motion, and the probe horizontal angle adjustment stage 5 and the extreme angle calibration stage 6 can be controlled by the host computer 12 to rotate.
