[0033] Furthermore, the gas analyzer 511 here is a common and easy-to-purchase device on the market, and will not be described in detail here.

[0034] In one embodiment, if Figure 1 As shown, the sampling tube 512 is funnel-shaped and is equipped with a micro vacuum pump. Negative pressure is generated to drive aerosols and particulate matter to quickly pass through the delivery pipeline to the analyzer, wherein the gas, aerosol and particles generated by ablation are collected and introduced into the subsequent analysis system. The funnel opening of the sampling tube 512 is located at the center of the bottom of the confinement chamber to maximize the capture of ablation products.

[0040] The gas in the gas source 61 is supplied to the housing 2 through the gas supply assembly 6 to meet the gas demand of the ablation process and facilitate the discharge or treatment of the exhaust gas.

[0041] Furthermore, the gas supply assembly 6 includes a gas supply module, a gas flow controller 62, a gas pressure regulating module, an exhaust gas treatment module, and an atmosphere monitoring module, which jointly control and dynamically adjust the atmosphere state in the device so that it can accurately simulate the ablation environment under multiple atmosphere change conditions.

[0044] In this embodiment, the shell 2 is further provided with a second air outlet 25 , and the laser ablation behavior testing system further includes an exhaust component 7 , which is connected to the outer wall of the experimental cover 1 and communicated with the interior of the shell 2 via the second air outlet 25 .

[0045] The tail gas component 7 is used to process the tail gas in the housing 2 to avoid external discharge causing environmental pollution.

[0046] Furthermore, the exhaust component 7 has a built-in multi-stage filtration system, including a particulate filter, an activated carbon filter and a chemical absorption unit, which are used to separate aerosols, adsorb volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and remove harmful gases, complete the exhaust gas purification before exhaust, and ensure the safety and environmental protection of the experimental environment; it should be equipped with a gas sensor to monitor the pollutant concentration in the exhaust gas in real time, and automatically alarm if it exceeds the set threshold.

[0047] In this example, Figure 1 As shown, the laser generating assembly 4 includes a condenser 41, a laser 42 and a reflector 43.

The reflector 43 is arranged between the condenser 41 and the laser 42 for guiding the laser beam to pass through the condenser 41 and enter the light-transmitting window 21.

[0048] The laser beam is irradiated onto the sample through the condenser lens 41 , the laser 42 and the reflection mirror 43 .

[0049] Furthermore, the main components of the laser 42 include a tunable laser resonant cavity, the wavelength range supports the ultraviolet to infrared range, and the interior contains a laser gain medium and a reflector 43 system for efficiently generating a laser beam.

[0050] According to the above scheme, the main components of the laser 42 include a pulse modulator (nanosecond, picosecond or femtosecond modulation) and a high-precision digital signal processor for accurately controlling the duration and frequency of the laser pulse; the laser 42 is equipped with beam collimation and expansion components to ensure the high directionality and stability of the laser output. At the same time, the built-in spatial filter is used to improve the beam quality and reduce scattering and diffraction effects.

[0051] According to the above scheme, the laser 42 is provided with an electric laser shutter, which can quickly open or close the laser output to protect the optical path and the safety of the operator. The shutter response time is less than 1ms, meeting the high-speed experimental conditions.

[0052] Furthermore, the laser 42 should also be provided with a closed-loop liquid cooling system, in which the cooling medium circulates through the internal pipeline of the laser 42 to dissipate heat, and is equipped with a high-precision temperature controller to maintain the operating temperature of the core components of the laser 42 within the range of ±0.1°C.

[0053] In one of the embodiments, the high-reflectivity total reflector is made of high-strength and high-temperature resistant material and is equipped with an adjustable reflector 43 bracket to support fine adjustment of angle and height, facilitating optical path correction and alignment.

[0054] According to the above scheme, the beam collimator is used to expand the laser beam into a collimated parallel beam to ensure the uniformity and directionality of the beam energy distribution. The built-in lens can be movable, deflected, disassembled and installed, and high-precision alignment and calibration is used to prevent the optical axis from deviating.

[0055] Furthermore, the focusing lens has high thermal stability and high transmittance, supports the replacement of lenses with various focal lengths to meet different experimental conditions, and is coated with a broadband anti-reflection coating on the surface to effectively reduce light energy loss and stray light interference.

[0056] According to the above scheme, the laser generating component 4 should meet the calibration requirements, including precise control of the position of the reflector 43 and the lens through a micron screw adjuster, a built-in low-power indication signal source for quickly calibrating the collimation and symmetry of the optical path, and a photoelectric sensor for real-time detection of beam deviation and sending a correction signal to the control system.

[0058] In this embodiment, Figure 1 As shown, the device further comprises an infrared temperature sensor 8 , which is arranged opposite to the light-transmitting window 21 and connected to the inner wall of the experimental cover 1 .

[0059] Here, the infrared temperature sensor 8 is a non-contact infrared thermometer, and the infrared temperature sensor 8 is complementary to the thermocouple to achieve real-time and accurate measurement of the sample temperature in a dynamic ablation environment.

[0060] Furthermore, the non-contact infrared thermometer supports high sensitivity and fast response, with a temperature measurement range of room temperature (20°C) to 3000°C and a resolution of 0.01°C. It is installed above the sample surface and fixed by an independent robotic arm 525. The height and angle can be adjusted to adapt to the shape and size of different samples. The field of view angle supports an adjustment range of 15° to 90° to ensure coverage of the entire ablation area.

[0061] According to the above scheme, the system should also include a data acquisition and processing module, which generates a high-resolution temperature distribution map through imaging technology after scanning the sample surface. In addition, the temperature data of both the infrared thermometer and the thermocouple are recorded in real time to generate curves that change over time. Real-time calibration can also be performed to ensure the consistency of the measurement accuracy of the infrared thermometer and the thermocouple. I will not go into details here.

[0064] Furthermore, the loading station 9 here belongs to the conventional setting well known to those skilled in the art, and will not be described in detail here.

[0065] The present invention also provides a laser ablation behavior testing method, using the above-mentioned laser ablation behavior testing system, the specific steps are as follows: Fix the sample to be tested on the loading position 31, turn on the infrared temperature sensor 8, the video acquisition component 52, and the temperature detection component 53 and preheat them; Adjust the sample holder 33 to rotate so that the loading position 31 where the sample to be tested is placed is arranged opposite to the light-transmitting window 21; Using the upper machine position 9, the gas mixer 63, the flow controller 62 and the tail gas assembly 7 are turned on to supply gas to the interior of the housing 2; Start the laser 42, so that the laser beam passes through the reflector 43, the condenser 41 and the light-transmitting window 21 in sequence and irradiates the sample to be tested; The upper machine position 9 receives the sample temperature data transmitted by the infrared temperature sensor 8 and the temperature detection element 53 in real time, and synchronously displays the temperature change curve of the sample. After reaching the set temperature, it remains unchanged, and the real-time image of the sample is displayed through the video acquisition element 52; After laser ablation is completed, an inert gas such as argon or nitrogen is introduced into the experimental cover 1 for cooling using a gas mixer 63 and a flow controller 62 until the temperature of the sample and the device returns to a safe range. Then, the gas mixer 63, the flow controller 62 and the exhaust gas component 7 are closed, and the sample after the laser ablation experiment is taken out.

[0067] The specific working process of the present invention is as follows: fix the sample to be tested on the loading position 31, turn on the infrared temperature sensor 8, the video acquisition component 52, and the temperature detection component 53 and preheat them; adjust the rotation of the sample fixing seat 33 so that the loading position 31 on which the sample to be tested is placed is arranged opposite to the light-transmitting window 21; use the upper machine position 9 to turn on the gas mixer 63, the flow controller 62 and the exhaust gas component 7 to add gas to the interior of the housing 2; start the laser 42 so that the laser beam passes through the reflector 43, the condenser 41 and the light-transmitting window 21 in sequence and irradiates the sample to be tested; use The upper machine position 9 receives the sample temperature data transmitted by the infrared temperature sensor 8 and the temperature detection component 53 in real time, and synchronously displays the temperature change curve of the sample. After reaching the set temperature, it remains unchanged, and the real-time image of the sample is displayed through the video acquisition component 52. After completing the laser ablation, the gas mixer 63 and the flow controller 62 are used to introduce argon or nitrogen and other inert gases into the experimental cover 1 for cooling until the temperature of the sample and the device returns to a safe range, and then the gas mixer 63, the flow controller 62 and the exhaust component 7 are turned off, and then the sample after the laser ablation experiment is taken out.

[0068] Furthermore, compared with the existing technology that has a single function or relies on the collaboration of multiple devices, this system greatly improves the test efficiency and data consistency, and is suitable for the ablation performance research of various materials such as metals, ceramics, glass, composite materials and coatings.

[0069] Through the high-precision gas flow controller 62, gas mixer 63 and gas pressure regulation module, the system can accurately simulate a variety of complex ablation conditions such as vacuum, high pressure and dynamic atmosphere changes; it supports precise adjustment and real-time switching of single atmosphere or mixed atmosphere, and meets the diverse needs of research on the behavior of materials in extreme environments.

[0070] The dynamic sampling unit of this system adopts a highly sensitive gas collection system to collect gases, aerosols and particulate matter in the ablation process in real time, and conducts precise component analysis through mass spectrometry, gas chromatography and other means. It can detect gas concentrations as low as 10ppm and particles in the range of 0.01µm to 100µm. Compared with traditional intermittent sampling methods, it greatly improves the integrity and reliability of the data.

[0071] The sample loading unit of this system adopts a rotating turntable design, which can load multiple samples at one time. It is driven by a servo motor to achieve automatic switching, and multiple sample tests can be completed without human intervention. The sample fixing position can be flexibly adjusted to accommodate samples of various sizes with diameters ranging from 10mm to 100mm. It supports continuous testing and repeated experiments, greatly improving experimental efficiency.

[0072] This system combines a non-contact infrared thermometer with a thermocouple to monitor the temperature distribution in the ablation area in real time and generate a high-resolution temperature distribution map. The data acquisition and analysis module can record the temperature change curve and provide the thermal response behavior of the material in the ablation environment, providing accurate temperature control and verification for experimental research.

[0073] Furthermore, the system uses a sealed optical path protection cover to prevent particulate matter and exhaust gas from contaminating the optical components, and has built-in beam collimation and expansion components to ensure the uniformity and directionality of the laser beam energy distribution. The shutter control system has a response time of less than 1ms, which can quickly cut off the laser output, avoid damage to equipment and personnel, and significantly improve the safety of the experiment.

[0074] The system's environmental atmosphere control unit is equipped with an exhaust gas treatment module and a built-in multi-stage filtration system to effectively filter volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and harmful gases, reducing the potential harm of the experiment to the environment and operators. All modules are parameterized and remotely operated, significantly improving experimental efficiency and safety.

[0075] The laser generating assembly 4 in this system is equipped with a closed-loop liquid cooling system, and the cooling medium circulates to dissipate heat, ensuring the stability of the laser 42 during long-term operation; a liquid cooling device is provided at the bottom of the sample fixing seat 33 for sample loading, which can reduce the heat accumulation problem caused by high-power laser and extend the service life of the equipment.

[0076] Through the above structure, the system can effectively solve the technical problem in the prior art that most ablation test devices have single functionality and lack real-time monitoring capabilities, resulting in low test accuracy.

[0077] The specific implementation of the present invention described above does not constitute a limitation on the protection scope of the present invention. Any other corresponding changes and modifications made based on the technical concept of the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the claims of the present invention.
