[0047] Based on the above-mentioned auxiliary device, the integrated alignment method of the microlens array and the infrared detector is realized, which specifically includes the following steps:
[0048] S1, fix the auxiliary device; select the lens replaceable supporting plate and the chip replaceable supporting plate matched with the microlens array lens and the detector chip respectively, then oppositely arrange the lens replaceable supporting plate and the chip replaceable supporting plate and respectively fix them on the lower side of the lens adjusting mechanism of the auxiliary device and the upper side of the chip adjusting mechanism of the auxiliary device.
[0049] S2, put a standard block between the lens replaceable supporting plate and the chip replaceable supporting plate, adjust the height of the lens replaceable supporting plate (adjust the lens Z-axis adjusting knob), so that it is in contact with the standard block.
[0050] S3, adjust the tilt angle of the chip replaceable support plate (adjust the tilt adjustment knob a / β), adjust the chip replaceable support plate and the lens replaceable support plate to a parallel state, as shown in Figure 4 .
[0051] S4, adjust the height of the lens replaceable support plate (adjust the lens Z-axis adjustment knob), take out the standard block, and then place the microlens array lens and the detector chip on the lens replaceable support plate and the chip replaceable support plate, respectively, and align them with the positioning columns on the corresponding support plates, as shown in Figure 5 . Among them, the microlens array lens is adsorbed and fixed to the lower side of the lens replaceable support plate through the invalid area around its array structure area. The detector chip is directly supported on the chip replaceable support plate without additional fixation. Because the lower platform of the chip replaceable support plate is a precision fine adjustment knob, the detector chip will not be offset during adjustment.
[0052] S5, adjust the position of the detector chip in the horizontal X, Y coordinate direction (adjust the X / Y axis adjustment knob), adjust the XY coordinate position of the detector chip and the microlens array lens to a roughly aligned state, that is, adjust the positional deviation between the two to within a certain error range, so as to further accurately adjust and position in the next step.
[0053] It should be noted that the adjustment of step S5 is only performed once when replacing the support plate. When repositioning the same type of microlens array lens and detector chip, step S5 is not performed again, and the microlens array lens and the detector chip are directly aligned on the positioning columns of the corresponding support plates for quick positioning, and then step S6 is performed for accurate positioning.
[0054] S6, turn on the computer and infrared light source emitter of the auxiliary device, light up the detector chip, and adjust the shaft knobs in the auxiliary device to accurately position the microlens array lens and the detector chip by simulating the receiving state of the light path image point between the infrared standard lens of the auxiliary device and the microlens array lens on the detector chip. The light path simulation diagram is shown in Figure 6 . The specific steps of adjusting the auxiliary device to accurately position the microlens array lens and the detector chip are as follows.
[0055] For the sake of illustration and clarity, the following adjustment steps are described in four small units. In the actual positioning process, if there are too many sub-units, it is not convenient to observe, and part of the sub-units on the chip can be blocked to retain a small part for positioning, as shown in Figure 7 . But the blocking scheme is not limited to these three ways.
[0056] 1) Adjust the height of the infrared standard lens, microlens array lens, and detector chip (adjust the lens Z-axis adjustment knob, lens Z-axis adjustment knob, and Z-axis fine-tuning knob) to adjust the focal length of the infrared standard lens and microlens array lens until the image planes are converged. Figure 8 As shown. During the focusing process, the height of the infrared standard lens is generally adjusted (different lenses have different curvatures), while the heights of the microlens array lenses and the detector chip can also be adjusted until focus is achieved.
[0057] 2) Adjust the tilt angle of the detector chip to fine-tune the parallelism between the detector chip and the microlens array mirrors, such as... Figure 9 As shown.
[0058] 3) Adjust the XY coordinate position and rotation of the detector chip, and fine-tune the planar position deviation between the detector chip and the microlens array lenses, such as... Figure 10 As shown, this enables precise alignment between the microlens array lenses and the detector chip.
[0059] S7. After alignment, the microlens array lenses and detector chip are packaged and fixed.

Any person skilled in the art may make changes or modifications to the above-disclosed technical content to create equivalent embodiments. However, any simple modifications, equivalent changes, and modifications made to the above embodiments based on the technical essence of the present invention without departing from the scope of the present invention shall still fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
