[0050] See also Figure 1 , Figure 1 The schematic diagram of the structure of the laser processing device 10 in some embodiments is shown. The laser processing device 10 provided in the present application includes but is not limited to being used in the field of laser micro-nano manufacturing, for example, in scenarios where three-dimensional curved surfaces or surfaces of objects with complex shapes need to be accurately etched. In some embodiments, the laser processing device 10 includes a laser 11 and a laser focusing system 20. The laser 11 is used to emit laser light. The type of the laser 11 and the laser wavelength band emitted by the laser 11 are not limited, and can be specifically designed according to the needs of the corresponding scene. The laser focusing system 20 includes a beam expander 21, a focusing lens group 22, a galvanometer 23, and a field lens 24 in sequence along the direction of laser propagation. The laser processing device 10 may also include a placement platform for placing the workpiece to be processed. The laser emitted by the laser 11 can be projected onto the workpiece to be processed on the placement platform after passing through the beam expander 21, the focusing lens group 22, the galvanometer 23, and the field lens 24 in sequence, and the workpiece to be processed is scanned and processed.
[0051] Among them, the beam expander 21 may include one or more lenses with optical focal length, which can collimate and / or expand the laser, and adjust the uniformity and aperture of the laser. At least part of the focusing lens group 22 can move along the optical axis to achieve the optical focusing function, that is, change the focal length and working distance of the laser focusing system 20, thereby changing the focusing position of the laser in the axial direction of the field lens 24 (hereinafter referred to as the Z-axis direction) to adapt to different processing positions of the surface of the workpiece to be processed in the Z-axis direction. The galvanometer 23 can adjust the emission angle of the laser after being reflected by the galvanometer 23 by rotating, thereby adjusting the focusing position of the laser in two mutually perpendicular directions (hereinafter referred to as the X-axis direction and the Y-axis direction) on the plane perpendicular to the axis of the field lens 24. The field lens 24 can adjust and converge the laser to the surface of the workpiece to be processed, improve the quality of the light spot, and thus improve the processing quality. It is understandable that the focusing lens group 22 adjusts the focusing position of the laser in the Z-axis direction, and the galvanometer 23 adjusts the focusing position of the laser in the X-axis direction and the Y-axis direction, so as to achieve a three-dimensional scanning effect on the workpiece being processed.
[0052] Furthermore, combined with Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, in some embodiments, the focusing lens group 22 includes a first lens L1 with negative optical power, a second lens L2 with positive optical power, and a third lens L3 with positive optical power in sequence along the laser propagation direction. The object side surface and the image side surface of the first lens L1 are both concave surfaces, the image side surface of the second lens L2 is convex, and the object side surface of the third lens L3 is convex. The field lens 24 includes a fourth lens L4 with negative optical power, a fifth lens L5 with negative optical power, a sixth lens L6 with positive optical power, a seventh lens L7 with positive optical power, and an eighth lens L8 with positive optical power in sequence along the laser propagation direction. The object side surface of the fourth lens L4 is concave and the image side surface is convex, the object side surface of the fifth lens L5 is concave, the object side surface of the sixth lens L6 is concave and the image side surface is convex, and the image side surface of the seventh lens L7 is convex.
[0053] In the above-mentioned laser focusing system 20, the focal length and surface design of each lens can form a good match, effectively reduce the telecentric angle of the laser focusing system 20, and improve the consistency of the roundness of the light spot at each position of the working surface, which is conducive to improving the light spot quality of the laser focusing system 20 and improving the processing quality of scanning processing using the laser focusing system 20. Specifically, the negative focal length and biconcave surface design of the first lens L1 can diverge the laser and adjust the propagation angle of the laser beam, so that the laser beam has a more suitable divergence state before entering the subsequent lens, which is conducive to the precise focusing of the subsequent lens. The focal length and surface design of the second lens L2 can initially focus the light, and with the focal length and surface design of the third lens L3, a high-precision focusing effect can be achieved, improving the accuracy and efficiency of laser processing. The negative focal length and concave-convex surface design of the fourth lens L4, in combination with the negative focal length and surface design of the fifth lens L5, can diverge the laser beam, improve the coverage of the laser beam, and meet the requirements of different processing area sizes. The coordination of the optical power and surface design of the sixth lens L6, the seventh lens L7 and the eighth lens L8 is conducive to converging the laser beam so as to project the laser beam onto the workpiece to form a light spot. It is also conducive to optimizing the light spot and improving the quality of the light plate so that parameters such as the light spot shape, energy density and uniformity can meet the laser processing requirements.
[0054] At the same time, the good coordination of the lenses is also beneficial to reducing the moving stroke of the focusing part of the focusing lens group 22 when the same working distance changes, thereby improving the optical lever of the laser focusing system 20, which is beneficial to reducing the occupied space and cost of the focusing setting of the laser focusing system 20, such as reducing the space occupied by the focusing moving stroke of the first lens L1, and the weight and volume of the driving element used to drive the first lens L1 to move.
[0055] In addition, in the above-mentioned laser focusing system 20, the focusing lens group 22 and the field lens 24 are designed and simulated as an optical system, so that the focusing lens group 22 and the field lens 24 can form a good cooperation, and jointly realize the focusing function and improve the effect of the quality of the light spot. Therefore, compared with the traditional laser focusing system in which the focusing lens group and the field lens are designed separately, and the focusing function of the focusing lens group and the adjustment function of the field lens on the light spot are relatively independent, when the focusing lens group 22 and the field lens 24 are assembled on the laser processing device 10, the cooperation between the focusing lens group 22 and the field lens 24 is more closely coordinated, which is conducive to reducing the complexity and difficulty of calibration and simplifying the debugging process of the laser focusing system 20.
[0056] In some embodiments, the first lens L1 can move along the optical axis relative to the second lens L2 to achieve the focusing function of the laser focusing system 20, and the mobile focusing of the first lens L1 can be achieved by any suitable driving mechanism such as a voice coil motor. The focusing function of the laser focusing system 20 is achieved by driving the first lens L1 located at the front end of the focusing lens group 22 and having a negative optical focal length to move, and the adjustment effect of the optical focal length and surface design of each lens of the laser focusing system 20 on the laser beam can be combined. The laser focusing system 20 can have a good light spot under different working distances, which is beneficial to improving the quality of laser processing, and is also beneficial to increasing the optical lever of the laser focusing system 20, which is beneficial to reducing the space occupied and cost of the laser focusing system 20, and increasing the scanning range of the laser beam to meet the scanning requirements of workpieces of different sizes.
[0057] For example, in some embodiments, the maximum movement stroke of the first lens L1 along the optical axis is 4 mm, and the working distance of the laser focusing system 20 is 206.07 mm-246.07 mm, then the optical lever of the laser focusing system 20 is 1:10, which can effectively compress the movement stroke of the first lens L1 under the same working distance change. Figure 3 , from top to bottom, respectively, schematic diagrams of optical paths of the focusing lens group 22 in three different focal length states are shown, wherein, in the second state relative to the first state, the first lens L1 moves 2 mm along the optical axis in a direction away from the second lens L2, and the working distance is reduced by 20 mm, and in the third state relative to the first state, the first lens L1 moves 2 mm along the optical axis in a direction close to the second lens L2, and the working distance is increased by 20 mm. It can be seen that when the moving stroke of the first lens L1 relative to the second lens L2 is ±2 mm, a variation range of ±20 mm in the working distance can be achieved, effectively improving the optical leverage of the laser focusing system 20.
[0058] In some embodiments, the object side surface of the second lens L2 is convex, the image side surface of the fifth lens L5 is convex, the object side surface of the seventh lens L7 is concave, and the object side surface and image side surface of the eighth lens L8 are both convex. In combination with other optical power and surface design of each lens, it is beneficial to improve the quality of the light spot, so that the laser focusing system 20 has good processing quality under different working distances.
[0059] In some embodiments, the laser focusing system 20 satisfies the conditional formula: 0.25≤|R11 / R12|≤0.37; wherein R11 is the radius of curvature of the object side surface of the first lens L1, and R12 is the radius of curvature of the image side surface of the first lens L1. For example, |R11 / R12| can be 0.25, 0.27, 0.29, 0.33, 0.35, and 0.37. When the above conditional formula is met, the ratio of the radius of curvature of the object side surface and the image side surface of the first lens L1 can be reasonably configured, thereby reasonably controlling the divergence degree of the light passing through the first lens L1, which is conducive to balancing various aberrations and improving the quality of the focused light spot.
[0060] In some embodiments, the laser focusing system 20 satisfies the conditional formula: 1.4≤|R31 / R22|≤1.9; wherein R22 is the radius of curvature of the image side surface of the second lens L2, and R31 is the radius of curvature of the object side surface of the third lens L3. For example, |R31 / R22| can be: 1.4, 1.5, 1.6, 1.7, 1.8 or 1.9. When the above conditional formula is met, the ratio of the radius of curvature of the object side surface of the third lens L3 to the image side surface of the second lens L2 can be reasonably configured, thereby reasonably controlling the transition of light between the second lens L2 and the third lens L3, which is beneficial to improving the light spot quality and focusing accuracy.
[0061] In some embodiments, the laser focusing system 20 satisfies the conditional formula: 0.45≤|R41 / R42|≤0.6; wherein R41 is the radius of curvature of the object side surface of the fourth lens L4, and R42 is the radius of curvature of the image side surface of the fourth lens L4. For example, |R41 / R42| can be: 0.45, 0.5, 0.54, 0.59 or 0.6. When the above conditional formula is met, the ratio of the radius of curvature of the object side surface and the image side surface of the fourth lens L4 can be reasonably configured, which is conducive to reasonably controlling the divergence of light in the fourth lens L4, balancing the aberrations of field curvature and astigmatism, thereby improving the uniformity of the light spot and improving the consistency and reliability of laser processing.
[0062] In some embodiments, the laser focusing system 20 satisfies the conditional formula: 1.2≤D45 / CT4≤1.9; wherein D45 is the distance from the image side surface of the fourth lens L4 to the object side surface of the fifth lens L5 on the optical axis, and CT4 is the thickness of the fourth lens L4 on the optical axis. For example, D45 / CT4 can be: 1.2, 1.3, 1.4, 1.5, 1.6, 1.7, 1.8 or 1.9. When the above conditional formula is met, the divergence angle of the laser beam in the fourth lens L4 and the spatial distance of divergence between the fourth lens L4 and the fifth lens L5 can be reasonably configured, which is conducive to reasonably controlling the divergence degree of the light, correcting aberrations such as field curvature, improving the uniformity of the light spot, and thus helping to improve the quality of laser processing.
[0063] In some embodiments, the laser focusing system 20 further includes an aperture, which is disposed on the light-entering side of the first lens L1. The aperture is provided to limit the cross-sectional size of the laser beam entering the laser focusing system 20, and to control the energy and power density of the beam to meet different processing requirements. In some embodiments, the laser focusing system 20 further includes a light-transmitting protective element 25 disposed on the light-exiting side of the eighth lens L8. The light-transmitting protective element 25 includes but is not limited to a glass plate, etc. The light-transmitting protective element 25 can provide protection for the field lens 24, so that the field lens 24 is protected from dust, scratches and other environmental factors.
[0064] In some embodiments, the object side and image side of each lens are both spherical, that is, the radius of curvature of the object side and image side of each lens is equal. Of course, in other embodiments, the object side and image side of each lens may also be aspherical, or a combination of spherical and aspherical surfaces. The material of each lens includes but is not limited to any suitable material such as glass or plastic.
[0065] In some embodiments, various parameters of the laser focusing system 20 are given in the following Table 1, wherein the first row of each lens corresponds to the light incident surface of the lens, and the second row corresponds to the light exit surface of the lens.

[0069] As shown in Table 1, in some embodiments, the laser focusing system 20 satisfies the conditional formula: 1.3≤Nd1≤1.7; 1.1≤Nd2≤1.5; 1.5≤Nd3≤1.9; 1.4≤Nd4≤1.8; 1.3≤Nd5≤1.7; 1.5≤Nd6≤1.9; 1.8≤Nd7≤2.2; 1.5≤Nd8≤1.9; 77≤Vd1≤83; 66≤Vd2≤72; 54≤Vd3≤60; 69≤Vd4≤74; 28≤Vd5≤34; 24≤Vd6≤30; 13≤Vd7≤19; 29≤Vd8≤35; wherein Nd1 is the refractive index of the first lens L1, N d2 is the refractive index of the second lens L2, Nd3 is the refractive index of the third lens L3, Nd4 is the refractive index of the fourth lens L4, Nd5 is the refractive index of the fifth lens L5, Nd6 is the refractive index of the sixth lens L6, Nd7 is the refractive index of the seventh lens L7, Nd8 is the refractive index of the eighth lens L8, Vd1 is the Abbe number of the first lens L1, Vd2 is the Abbe number of the second lens L2, Vd3 is the Abbe number of the third lens L3, Vd4 is the Abbe number of the fourth lens L4, Vd5 is the Abbe number of the fifth lens L5, Vd6 is the Abbe number of the sixth lens L6, Vd7 is the Abbe number of the seventh lens L7, and Vd8 is the Abbe number of the eighth lens L8.

It is also beneficial to adapt to the corresponding laser wavelength. For example, when the laser processing device 10 uses the near-infrared band for laser processing, through the reasonable configuration of each lens, the laser focusing system 20 can provide good light spot quality for the near-infrared band, such as providing good light spot quality for near-infrared light with a wavelength of 1064nm, thereby improving the quality of laser processing.
[0070] In some embodiments, the focal length of the field lens 24 is 167 mm, which can effectively converge the laser from the focusing lens group 22 and the galvanometer 23 onto the workpiece to be processed to meet the scanning requirements. In some embodiments, the entrance pupil diameter of the laser focusing system 20 is 5 mm, the maximum working range is 80 mm (X-axis direction) * 80 mm (Y-axis direction) * 40 mm (Z-axis direction), and the maximum focusing stroke of the first lens L1 along the optical axis is 4 mm. By effectively increasing the optical lever of the laser focusing system 20, a larger range of working distances can be achieved through a smaller focusing stroke of the first lens L1, meeting the scanning requirements of different depths, and improving the zoom capability and flexibility of the laser focusing system 20. The focusing spot diameter of the laser focusing system 20 is less than 35 um, which can meet the diameter and energy required for laser scanning.

Figure 4 It can be seen that the maximum telecentric angle in the entire scanning field is 1°, which can improve the consistency of the processing effects at the edge and in the middle, thereby helping to improve the laser processing accuracy and quality. Figure 5 From left to right, the circularity diagrams of the laser focusing system 20 when the working distances are 226.07 mm, 206.07 mm, and 246.07 mm are shown respectively. Figure 5 It can be seen that when the working distance is 226.07mm, the roundness of the focused spot is between 0.985 and 1.015; when the working distance is 206.07mm and 246.07mm, the roundness of the focused spot is between 0.95 and 1.05, and the change in the roundness of the focused spot in the three-dimensional scanning field is within 5%, with good spot quality. Figure 6 From left to right, they are the spot diameter diagrams of the laser focusing system 20 when the working distances are 226.07 mm, 206.07 mm, and 246.07 mm. Figure 6 It can be seen that the focus spot diameter meets the data in Table 2 below, the focus spot diameter variation is less than 1.4um, and the processing consistency is good.
