[0062] The optical path module IV includes: a first optical path, a filter 9, a beam splitter 10, a second optical path, a third optical path, a fourth optical path, and a sample displacement stage 21.
[0063] The first optical path projects the excitation light onto the sample; the sample is placed on the sample displacement stage 21; the filter 9 filters the white light emitted by the white light laser 8 to eliminate the strong 1064 nm light in the white light, and the beam splitter 10 splits the filtered white light; after splitting, 20% of the white light is reflected as the reference light and enters the system control module V through the second optical path; the other 80% of the white light is used as the detection light, which is focused onto the sample through the third optical path, and then becomes parallel light through the fourth optical path and enters the system control module V.
[0064] The first optical path includes: a first reflector 3, a first small hole 4, a first attenuation sheet 5, a first plano-convex lens 6, and a second reflector 7 arranged in sequence. The excitation light source 1 emits excitation light, which passes through the first reflector 3, the first small hole 4, the first attenuation sheet 5, the first plano-convex lens 6, and the second reflector 7 and finally hits the sample, overlapping with the white light.

[0068] The system control module V includes: an industrial control computer 32, a timing card 31, a delay calculator 30, a detection spectrometer 27, a detection optical detector 29, a reference spectrometer 15, and a reference detector 16. The detection spectrometer 27 is signal-connected to the detection optical detector 29, and the reference spectrometer 15 is signal-connected to the reference detector 16; the timing card 31, the delay calculator 30, the detection optical detector 29, the reference detector 16, and the white light laser 8 are respectively signal-connected to the industrial control computer 32; the timing card 31 is respectively signal-connected to the detection optical detector 29, the reference detector 16, the excitation light source 1, the function signal generator 33, the white light laser 8, and the delay calculator 30.
[0069] The reference light enters the reference monochromator 15 and is incident on the reference detector 16; the detection light enters the detection spectrometer 27 and is incident on the detection optical detector 29.
[0070] The industrial control computer 32 realizes the control of the timing card 31 and other related hardware, and its hardware wiring method is as Figure 2 shown. The PFI32 terminal of the timing card 31 is respectively connected to the Trigger In terminal of the detection optical detector 29, the Trigger In terminal of the reference detector 16, and the InputA terminal of the delay calculator 30. The PFI35 terminal of the timing card 31 is respectively connected to the Trigger Out terminal of the excitation light source 1 and the Trigger Out terminal of the function signal generator 33. The PFI37 terminal of the timing card 31 is respectively connected to the DFB terminal of the white light laser 8. The PFI38 terminal of the timing card 31 is respectively connected to the PUMP terminal of the white light laser 8. The PFI39 terminal of the timing card 31 is respectively connected to the Arm InputE terminal of the delay calculator 30. The InputB terminal of the delay calculator 30 is connected to the Trigger Out terminal of the white light laser 8.
[0071] The timing card 31 can generate synchronous trigger signals according to the clock signals output by the excitation light source 1 or the function signal generator 33, control the white light laser 8 to synchronously output pulses, and control the detection detector 29, the reference detector 16, and the reference detector 16 and the delay calculator 30 to synchronously collect data. Its timing control diagram is as Figure 3 shown.
[0072] The test and detection method of the nanosecond transient absorption spectroscopy test system of the present invention includes the following processes:
[0073] Step 1: The 1KHz clock signal output by the excitation light source 1 or the function signal generator 33 is input to the timing card 31. The timing card 31 generates a first reference signal (REF1 signal) and a second reference signal (REF2 signal) according to the clock signal, and then generates a D trigger signal (DFB signal) and a P trigger signal (PUMP signal) according to the first reference signal (REF1 signal), and generates a detector trigger signal (CMOS signal) according to the second reference signal (REF2 signal).
[0074] Among them, the first reference signal (REF1 signal) has a repetition frequency of 1KHz and has a delay time t1. The delay time t1 is adjustable, and the adjustment range of the delay time t1 is 0 - 500us.
[0075] The D trigger signal (DFB signal) has a repetition frequency of 2KHz, a delay time of 0us, and a high-level duty cycle of 50%.
[0076] The P trigger signal (PUMP signal) has a repetition frequency of 2KHz, a delay time of t3, and an adjustable high-level duty cycle.
[0077] The second reference signal (REF2 signal) has a repetition frequency of 2KHz and a delay time of t2.
[0078] The detector trigger signal (CMOS signal) has a repetition frequency of 2KHz and a delay time of 0us.
[0079] Step 2: The timing card 31 inputs the D trigger signal (DFB signal) and the P trigger signal (PUMP signal) to the white light laser 8; and outputs the detector trigger signal (CMOS signal) to the detection light detector 29 and the reference detector 16 at the same time.
[0080] Specifically, the DFB signal and the PUMP signal are respectively input to the DFB interface and the PUMP interface of the white light laser 8, so that the white light laser 8 emits light, and the relationship between the white light pulse and the excitation light pulse (or the electro-excitation pulse signal) is as Figure 4 , realizing the pump-probe relationship, and the time delay t1' between the excitation light and the white light is continuously adjustable from -10ns to 450us with the adjustment of the delay time t1 of the REF1 signal.
[0081] The CMOS signal is output to the detection light detector 29 and the reference detector 16 at the same time, realizing synchronous detection of the detection light and the white light pulse acquisition by the detection light detector 29 and the reference detector 16. The white light time of the detection light detector 29 is set to 460us, and the exposure time is greater than the white light delay range, ensuring that the detection window of the system is 450us.
[0082] The REF2 signal serves as the frame Start signal for the detection light detector 29 and the reference detector 16, and the CMOS signal serves as the acquisition signal for the detection light detector 29 and the reference detector 16, enabling data acquisition to always start in the PUMP state, as Figure 5 shown.
[0083] Step 3: According to the timing control of the timing card 31, conduct system testing: The excitation light source 1 emits excitation light, which is emitted into the optical path module IV through the optical parametric amplifier 2, and the excitation light is directed onto the sample through the first optical path for pump light-induced excitation; or the electrical pulse signal of the first channel of the function signal generator 33 is applied to the positive and negative electrodes of the sample for pump electro-induced excitation;
[0084] The filter 9 filters the white light, and the beam splitter 10 splits the filtered white light; after splitting, 20% of the white light is reflected as the reference light and enters the system control module V through the second optical path; the other 80% of the white light is used as the detection light, which is focused onto the sample through the third optical path, and then becomes parallel light through the fourth optical path and enters the system control module V; the reference light enters the reference monochromator 15 and is directed onto the reference detector 16; the detection light enters the detection spectrometer 27 and is directed onto the detection light detector 29;
[0085] Step 4: According to the data obtained from the detection light detector 29 and the reference detector 16, calculate the TA signal value according to the following formula:
[0086]
[0087] In the formula, TA(ΔT / T) represents the transient absorption transmittance value, I 1-pump represents the measurement value of the detection detector in the excited state, IRef 1-pump represents the measurement value of the reference detector in the excited state, I 1-unpump represents the measurement value of the detection detector in the unexcited state, IRef 1-unpump represents the measurement value of the reference detector in the unexcited state;
[0088] The obtained TA signal value can effectively eliminate the white light jitter of the white light laser and improve the white light signal-to-noise ratio.
[0089] Step 5: Calculate the time delay t value corresponding to each TA signal value to obtain the test result of the nanosecond transient absorption spectrum.
[0090] The time resolution of the system is actually the time delay accuracy between the excitation light and the detection light. Earlier systems relied more on the accuracy of the timing card 31. The timing card of the present invention can use NIPCIE-6612 with an internal clock of 100 MHz, and the time resolution of its counter output is 10 ns. That is, for an output signal generated according to an input signal, there will be a 10-ns jitter in time, as Figure 6 shown. To improve the time resolution of the system, the system is configured with a delay calculator 30, and the delay calculator 30 can use CNT91.
[0091] While the system controls the detection light detector 29 and the reference detector 16 to collect data, the timing card 31 generates an electrical pulse signal with a 0-us delay according to the REF2 signal. The signal is connected to the InputE interface of the delay calculator 30. At the same time, the Trigger Out signals of the excitation light source 1 and the function signal generator 33 are connected to the CHA interface of the delay calculator 30, and the Trigger Out signal of the white light laser 8 is connected to the CHB interface of the delay calculator 30. After receiving the InputE signal, the delay counter 30 synchronizes with the detection light detector 29 and the reference detector 16 to collect and calculate the actual time delay data t between the detection white light pulse (CHB signal) and the excitation light pulse (CHA signal) of the pump data collected by each detector each time. The data is as Figure 7 shown.
[0092] In this way, each calculated TA value corresponds to a time delay t value, denoted as TA(t n ). As Figure 8 shown, the system makes <data STEP> according to <scan STEP>;
[0093]
[0094] wherein, t n ’ < t1, t2…t n < t n+1 ).
[0095] As Figure 9 、 10 、11 shown, they are the measured data of this system. It can be seen that the measured data has a high signal-to-noise ratio (less than 0.1 mOD) and a high time resolution (less than 1 ns).
[0096] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention, rather than to limit it; although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those of ordinary skill in the art should understand that they can modify the technical solutions recorded in the foregoing embodiments, or perform equivalent replacements on some or all of the technical features, without departing from the essence of the corresponding technical solutions from the scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention.
