TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of micro-displacement detection, and in particular to a nanometer-level micro-displacement measurement device based on a new optical path magnification and non-localized interference. BACKGROUND
[0002] With the progress of micro-displacement measurement technology, nanometer-scale displacement detection puts forward more stringent technical requirements for system sensitivity and resolution capability. This has given rise to the need to develop detection devices with higher stability and measurement accuracy to meet the accurate characterization of micro-displacement in industrial manufacturing and scientific experiments.
[0003] Micro-displacement measurement can be divided into optical measurement and electrical measurement, each with its own advantages and disadvantages. Electrical measurement is relatively low in cost, but has low resolution, is easily affected by temperature drift and electromagnetic noise, and contact measurement may cause damage to the sample. In contrast, optical measurement, although more expensive, has the advantages of simple principle and effective solution to the above problems. Therefore, optical measurement has more advantages in high-precision measurement.
[0004] As an optical measurement device, the Michelson interferometer has the advantages of high sensitivity and non-contact measurement in micro-displacement measurement, but is limited by the resolution of λ / 2, making it difficult to meet the accuracy requirements of modern nanometer-level micro-displacement measurement. Therefore, a detection system with higher accuracy is needed. SUMMARY
[0005] To solve the problem that existing optical measurement devices cannot meet the needs of nanometer-level micro-displacement measurement, the present application proposes a nanometer-level micro-displacement measurement device based on a new optical path magnification and non-localized interference. The displacement is captured by an optical path magnification system to improve the sensitivity of optical detection, the stability of detection is significantly improved by combining an optical path interference system, and data processing is performed by a data acquisition and processing system to meet the needs of nanometer-level micro-displacement measurement.
[0006] To achieve the above purpose, the present application proposes a nanometer-level micro-displacement measurement device based on a new optical path magnification and non-localized interference, which includes an optical path detection module. The optical path detection module includes a light source, an optical path magnification system, an optical path interference system and a data acquisition and processing system. The optical path magnification system includes a parallel plane mirror, the parallel plane mirror includes a fixed mirror and a moving mirror, and the moving mirror moves relative to the fixed mirror.
[0007] The optical path interference system includes a first beam splitter, a second beam splitter, a first plane mirror, a second plane mirror and a convex lens. The parallel plane mirror is arranged between the first beam splitter and the second beam splitter, the first plane mirror is arranged below the first beam splitter, the second plane mirror is arranged below the second beam splitter, the convex lens is arranged at the rear side of the second beam splitter, and the data acquisition and processing system is arranged at the rear side of the convex lens.
[0008] Further, the first beam splitter, the second beam splitter, the first plane mirror, the second plane mirror, the convex lens, the fixed mirror and the movable mirror are provided with optical adjustment frames for adjusting the attitudes of the first beam splitter, the second beam splitter, the first plane mirror, the second plane mirror, the convex lens, the fixed mirror and the movable mirror.
[0009] The first beam splitter and the second beam splitter comprise half-transmission half-reflection mirrors.
[0010] The parallel plane mirror comprises a high-reflection parallel mirror.
[0011] The provision of the optical adjustment frames can accurately adjust the attitudes (such as the pitch angle and the horizontal angle) of the optical elements, ensure the alignment accuracy of the optical path, and improve the system stability.
[0012] Further, the light source is incident on the first beam splitter at an angle of 45°, the first beam splitter divides the incident light into transmitted light L1 and reflected light L2, the transmitted light L1 enters the high-reflection parallel plane mirror, reaches the second beam splitter, the reflected light L2 is transmitted to the first plane mirror, is reflected by the second plane mirror through the attenuator after reflection, and finally reaches the second beam splitter, the reflected light L2 and the transmitted light L1 form two convergent lights after passing through the convex lens, the two lights are respectively focused on two different points to generate two convergent points S1 and S2, the two lights are coherent laser, thus forming two coherent point light sources S1 and S2, and further forming a non-local interference fringe in space.
[0013] The data acquisition and processing system acquires the non-local interference fringe image to generate distance data.
[0014] The design of the light path amplification (multiple reflections of the parallel plane mirror) of the transmitted light L1 and the reference light path of the reflected light L2 makes the two lights form a non-local interference fringe after passing through the convex lens. The non-local interference fringe stably exists in space, reduces the limitation on the observation position, and enhances the anti-interference ability of the system; the two electric light sources formed by the focusing of the convex lens ensure that the interference fringe is clear and distinguishable, and the analysis of the fringe by the data acquisition and processing system realizes the accurate conversion of the displacement amount to the optical path difference information, which provides a direct basis for the calculation of the nanoscale micro displacement.
[0015] Further, the first plane mirror and the second plane mirror are provided with an attenuator. The provision of the attenuator ensures that the intensities of the two lights are similar, and avoids that the interference fringe is blurred due to the strong substrate light.
[0016] Further, the measurement verification system comprises a voltage driving system for driving the measured object, and the voltage driving system comprises an IT6332A three-way programmable direct-current power supply.
[0017] The IT6332A three-way programmable direct current power supply realizes voltage drive control, and can accurately adjust the voltage applied to the measured object.
[0018] Further, the light source comprises a helium-neon laser.
[0019] Further, the data acquisition and processing system comprises a CCD module and a host computer, the CCD module is used for acquiring non-localized interference fringe images, the output end of the CCD module is electrically connected to the host computer, and the host computer is used for analyzing the fringe movement through a Python program.
[0020] The CCD module efficiently acquires interference fringe images, ensuring clear capture of fringe details; the host computer analyzes the fringe movement through a Python program, realizing fringe movement counting.
[0021] Through the above technical solution, the present application has the following advantages:
[0022] 1. The present application comprises an optical path amplification system, a voltage drive system, an optical path interference system and a data acquisition and processing system, wherein the optical path amplification system is based on parallel plane mirrors (fixed mirror and movable mirror) design, so that the laser beam is reflected multiple times between the two mirrors to realize optical path amplification, and the sensitivity of micro displacement measurement is improved, providing core technical support for nanoscale micro displacement detection.
