[0024] The wavelength measurement method based on sinusoidal phase modulation interference technology provided by the embodiments of the present application will be described in detail below with reference to the drawings and specific embodiments and application scenarios.

[0027] Figure 3 Figure 4 shows a flowchart of an improved PGC-Arctan demodulation algorithm with Lissajous ellipse correction according to an embodiment of the present application.

[0028] The wavelength measurement method based on the sine phase modulation interference technology according to an embodiment of the present application can include the following steps:

[0029] S1: Obtain a reference laser source with a known wavelength and a wavelength laser source to be measured.

[0030] S2: Introduce the reference laser source and the wavelength laser source to be measured into the improved Michelson interferometer to generate a first reference interference signal and a first measurement interference signal.

[0031] The improved Michelson interferometer is an optical instrument based on the principle of the Michelson interferometer, which is used to accurately measure the interference phenomenon, displacement, wavelength and other parameters of light waves. Compared with the traditional Michelson interferometer, the improved Michelson interferometer has been optimized and enhanced in structure and function to improve the measurement accuracy and sensitivity, and has been widely used in the fields of wavelength measurement, displacement measurement and the like.

[0032] In a possible implementation, the improved Michelson interferometer specifically includes a first polarizer H1, a first polarization beam splitter PBS1, a non-polarization beam splitter BS, a PZT displacement stage, a first corner cube mirror M1, a second corner cube mirror M2, a second polarization beam splitter PBS2, an EOM electro-optic modulator, a first optical filter F1, a second optical filter F2, a photodetector PD1, a photodetector PD2 and a second polarizer H2.

[0033] The first polarizer H1, the first polarization beam splitter PBS1, the non-polarization beam splitter BS, the second corner cube mirror M2, the PZT displacement stage, the first corner cube mirror M1, the EOM electro-optic modulator, the second polarization beam splitter PBS2, the first optical filter F1 and the photodetector PD1 are sequentially connected.

[0034] The second polarizer H2, the first polarization beam splitter PBS1, the non-polarization beam splitter BS, the second corner cube mirror M2, the PZT displacement stage, the first corner cube mirror M1, the EOM electro-optic modulator, the second polarization beam splitter PBS2, the second optical filter F2 and the photodetector PD1 are sequentially connected.​

[0035] In one possible implementation, S2 specifically includes:

[0036] S201: Adjusting the reference laser source through the first polarizer H1 to adjust the polarization state of the light beam to vertical polarization light.

[0037] S202: After transmitting the vertical polarization light through the first polarization beam splitter PBS1, the light is divided into probe light and modulation light at the non-polarization beam splitter BS.

[0038] S203: Reflecting the probe light into the second polarization beam splitter PBS2 through the second corner cube mirror on the PZT displacement table.

[0039] S204: After the modulation light is reflected by the first corner cube mirror M1, the phase modulation is performed on the modulation light by the EOM electro-optic modulator to generate a high-frequency phase carrier.

[0040] S205: The high-frequency phase carrier is combined with the probe light reflected into the second polarization beam splitter PBS2 through the second polarization beam splitter PBS2, and is input to the photodetector PD1 to obtain a first reference interference signal.

[0041] S206: Adjusting the to-be-measured wavelength laser source through the second polarizer H2 to adjust the polarization state of the light beam to horizontal polarization light, and obtaining a first measurement interference signal in the same way as the reference laser source.

[0042] Specifically, a HeNe laser (HRS015B, Thorlabs) with a wavelength of 632.8 nm is used as a known light source. The frequency and wavelength of the laser are accurately measured by an FP interferometer before leaving the factory, and can be used as a standard reference wavelength. The light beam emitted by the reference laser passes through the adjustment of the H1 polarizer, and the polarization state is vertically polarized and completely transmitted through PBS1. At BS, the light is divided into two paths, the transmitted light is called probe light, and the reflected light is called modulation light. The probe light enters PBS2 after being reflected by the M2 corner cube mirror fixed on the PZT displacement table, and the other path is reflected by the M1 pouring machine and then passes through the EOM electro-optic modulator. The EOM performs phase modulation on the light beam to generate a high-frequency phase carrier, which is then transmitted through PBS2 to combine with the probe light, undergoes optical mixing, and is finally received by the photodetector PD1 to generate S r (t) signal. The to-be-measured laser beam also passes through the above optical path, except that the polarization state of the to-be-measured laser beam needs to be adjusted to horizontal polarization before entering the Michelson interference optical path, that is, the polarization states of the to-be-measured light and the measurement light are orthogonal. The to-be-measured light beam passes through the same optical path to form an optical mixing signal which is received by the photodetector PD2 to generate S m (t) signal.

[0043] It should be noted that a double laser interference optical path is improved on the basis of the optical path of the traditional Michelson interferometer. The scheme uses a known wavelength light source as a reference light source, drives M2 high-frequency micro-vibration through piezoelectric ceramic and other equipment, interferes with the light source to be measured, captures the orthogonal polarization interference signal on the photoelectric detector, and then uses the self-developed software (PGC demodulation algorithm) on Labview to demodulate the data, and obtains the final wavelength. The error between the calculated value and the actual value is kept within ±0.1 nm.

[0044] In the embodiments of the present application, high precision of wavelength measurement is achieved by precisely controlling the polarization state of light, phase modulation, optical path difference and collection of interference signals. Through these technologies, the improved Michelson interferometer can eliminate the light source deviation, optimize the generation and demodulation process of the interference signal, and improve the measurement sensitivity of the small displacement and wavelength change. These optimized designs provide a more reliable experimental basis for actual wavelength measurement.

[0045] It should be noted that when two coherent light waves meet, they will interfere, forming interference fringes with light and dark. The distribution and intensity of these fringes are determined by the phase difference of the two light beams, and the phase difference is mainly affected by the wavelength and the difference in the length of the propagation path (i.e. the optical path difference) of the light. In the interference experiment, when the optical path difference of the two light beams is an integer multiple of the wavelength, constructive interference occurs, forming bright fringes; when the optical path difference is an odd multiple of half the wavelength, destructive interference occurs, forming dark fringes, so the distribution of interference fringes directly reflects the wavelength information of the light. In interference measurement, light waves of different wavelengths have different interference fringe distribution characteristics.

[0046] In Doppler interference, the phase of the interference signal is modulated by the measured moving object. Two laser beams of different wavelengths are used to detect the same displacement, and the wavelengths of the two laser beams are λ1 and λ2, and the measured displacement is d. Then the phase change of the displacement to the interference signal is:

[0047]

[0048] wherein, represents the phase change of the reference laser source, λ1 represents the wavelength of the reference laser source, d represents the measured displacement, represents the phase change of the wavelength laser to be measured, λ2 represents the wavelength of the wavelength laser to be measured.

[0049] From the formula, the phase change of the interference signal is inversely proportional to the wavelength, that is, different wavelengths of light detect the same displacement, and the phase change of the interference signal is different. For the wavelength measurement system designed in this project, the phases of the two signals are demodulated respectively, the phase change generated by the measured object is calculated, the ratio of the phase changes of the two signals is calculated, and the wavelength of the measured laser is calculated by combining the known wavelength of the reference light. Therefore, the high-precision phase demodulation of the two detection signals is the key to realizing the wavelength measurement of the present work.

[0050] S3: respectively phase modulating the first reference interference signal and the first measurement interference signal to obtain the second reference interference signal and the second measurement interference signal containing high-frequency phase carriers.

[0051] S4: respectively demodulating the second reference interference signal and the second measurement interference signal by improving the PGC-Arctan demodulation algorithm to extract the reference interference signal phase in the second reference interference signal and the measurement interference signal phase in the second measurement interference signal.

[0052] Among them, the improved PGC-Arctan demodulation algorithm is an algorithm for accurately demodulating interference signals, commonly used in interference measurement, displacement measurement, wavelength measurement and other fields. This algorithm can effectively extract and restore small displacement changes or other measured physical quantities by combining phase generation carrier (PGC) technology and arctangent (Arctan) method.

[0053] In one possible implementation, S4 specifically includes:

[0054] S401: using PGC demodulation technology, mixing the second reference interference signal, a frequency carrier signal and a two-frequency carrier signal.

[0055] S402: filtering the second reference interference signal after mixing by a low-pass filter to obtain a phase quadrature signal pair:

[0056]

[0057] Among them, Q(t) represents the quadrature component, G represents the amplitude of the fundamental frequency carrier signal, I 1r represents the amplitude of the alternating component of the reference interference signal, J1 represents the first-order Bessel function, C r represents the modulation depth of the carrier in the reference interference signal phase, α represents the phase delay between the phase carrier and the mixing carrier signal, represents the real-time phase of the reference signal, I(t) represents the same component, H represents the amplitude of the two-frequency carrier signal, J2 represents the second-order Bessel function, θ r represents the phase difference, sin represents the sine function, and cos represents the cosine function.

[0058] Among them, the low-pass filter (Low Pass Filter, LPF) is a common signal processing tool, which is used to allow signals below a certain frequency (i.e. cutoff frequency) to pass through, while suppressing signals above that frequency. It is a kind of frequency domain filtering, widely used in electronics, communications, audio processing, image processing and other fields.

[0059] In the embodiment of the present application, the improved PGC technology is used to mix the second reference interference signal with the one frequency carrier and the two frequency carrier signal, and then filter out the high frequency noise through the low-pass filter, only retaining the low frequency part related to the signal change. Effectively remove unnecessary high frequency components in the interference signal, only retain low frequency information. Through filtering, the signal is cleaner, the noise is suppressed, the signal-to-noise ratio of the signal is increased, and the accuracy of phase demodulation is improved.

[0060] S403: Draw a Lissajous figure based on the phase quadrature signal pair.

[0061] Among them, the Lissajous figure (Lissajous Curve) is a graph that depicts the relative relationship between two sinusoidal signals, which was discovered by French physicist Jules Antoine Lissajous in the 19th century and named after him. Lissajous figure is usually used to show the phase difference, frequency ratio and interaction between two periodic signals, widely used in signal processing, vibration analysis, interferometry and other fields.

[0062] S404: Perform ellipse fitting on the Lissajous figure by least squares method to obtain the basic parameters of the ellipse, wherein the basic parameters include the length of the horizontal axis, the length of the vertical axis, the coordinates of the center point and the inclination angle relative to the horizontal axis.

[0063] S405: Based on the basic parameters, use the correction formula to correct the phase quadrature signal pair.

[0064] In one possible implementation, the correction formula is specifically:

[0065]

[0066] Among them, Q N (t) represents the quadrature component after ellipse fitting, i0 represents the horizontal coordinate of the center point, q0 represents the vertical coordinate of the center point, r q represents the length of the vertical axis, I N (t) represents the co-directional component after ellipse fitting, r i represents the length of the horizontal axis.

[0067] In this embodiment of the invention, Lissajous ellipse correction technology is introduced. By correcting the phase signal pair using the least squares method, the influence caused by non-orthogonal errors can be reduced, making the signal pair more orthogonal and thus obtaining more accurate phase information. Simultaneously, this correction can effectively compensate for nonlinear errors caused by equipment errors, environmental factors, etc., improving the stability and reliability of the measurement.

[0068] S406: Perform a division operation on the phase-quadrature signal pairs after correction and use the Arctan algorithm for phase demodulation to obtain preliminary phase information.

[0069] In one possible implementation, the Arctan algorithm is used for phase demodulation, and the specific formula for obtaining preliminary phase information is as follows:

[0070]

[0071] in, Indicates preliminary phase information, Q N (t) represents the orthogonal components after ellipse fitting, I N (t) represents the same-direction component after ellipse fitting, and Arctan represents the arctangent function.

[0072] In this embodiment of the invention, by performing a division operation on the corrected phase-orthogonal signal pairs and using the Arctan algorithm for phase demodulation, phase information can be extracted from the interferometric signal efficiently and accurately. The advantages of the Arctan algorithm include simplified calculation, improved demodulation accuracy, enhanced system stability, and reduced noise interference. These advantages have led to the widespread application of this method in fields such as interferometry, wavelength measurement, and displacement measurement.

[0073] S407: Based on the preliminary phase information, the phase of the reference interference signal is obtained using the unwrapping algorithm.

[0074] The Phase Unwrapping Algorithm is a technique used to solve the phase jump problem. Phase values ​​in phase measurements typically change periodically, meaning the phase fluctuates between -π and π, exhibiting a phase jump phenomenon. When the phase value reaches π or -π, it jumps to the boundary of another period. The goal of the Phase Unwrapping Algorithm is to recover continuous phase information, avoid the effects of these jumps, and obtain the true phase.

[0075] S408: Obtain the phase of the measured interference signal in the same manner as processing the phase of the reference interference signal.

[0076] Specifically, according to PGC demodulation, the first-harmonic carrier signal Gcos(ω) ct) and the double frequency carrier signal Hcos(2ω c t) and the double frequency carrier signal Hcos(2ω N t) and the double frequency carrier signal Hcos(2ω N t) and the double frequency carrier signal Hcos(2ω

[0077] In summary, the improved PGC-Arctan demodulation algorithm significantly improves the accuracy and stability of the interference signal demodulation by combining Lissajous figure analysis, ellipse fitting, phase correction, and unwrapping algorithms. It can effectively eliminate system errors and non-orthogonal errors, accurately extract small displacements or wavelength changes, and solve the problem of phase discontinuity caused by phase jumps. This algorithm not only improves the measurement accuracy in low signal-to-noise ratio and complex environments, but also has strong applicability, widely used in high-precision displacement, wavelength measurement, and interferometer instruments, providing a reliable solution for precision optical measurement.

[0078] S5: Perform fast Fourier transform on the reference interference signal phase and the measurement interference signal phase to determine the reference interference signal amplitude and the measurement interference signal amplitude.

[0079] Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) is a high-efficiency algorithm for calculating Discrete Fourier Transform (DFT). It reduces the computational complexity, making the calculation of Fourier transform more efficient when dealing with large data sets. FFT has a wide range of applications in signal processing, image processing, audio processing, communication, vibration signal analysis, quantum physics, and other fields.

[0080] In one possible implementation, S5 specifically includes:

[0081] S501: performing fast Fourier transform on the reference interference signal phase and the measured interference signal phase to obtain a frequency spectrum distribution of the reference interference signal phase and a frequency spectrum distribution of the measured interference signal phase.

[0082] S502: extracting an amplitude at an angular frequency 110π from the frequency spectrum distribution of the reference interference signal phase and the frequency spectrum distribution of the measured interference signal phase respectively to obtain a reference interference signal amplitude and a measured interference signal amplitude.

[0083] In the embodiment of the present application, by performing fast Fourier transform on the reference interference signal and the measured interference signal, the key frequency component and amplitude can be efficiently extracted in the frequency domain. This method provides higher signal-to-noise ratio, accurate amplitude extraction, and clear identification of the frequency component, which provides an accurate and stable basis for subsequent wavelength or displacement calculation.

[0084] S6: calculating the wavelength of the to-be-measured wavelength laser source according to the reference interference signal amplitude, the measured interference signal amplitude, and the known wavelength of the reference laser source.

[0085] In a possible implementation, the formula of the wavelength of the to-be-measured wavelength laser source is specifically:

[0086]

[0087] wherein λ m represents the wavelength of the to-be-measured laser, λ r represents the reference laser wavelength, A r (ω) represents the amplitude of the reference laser signal, A m (ω) represents the amplitude of the to-be-measured laser signal, and ω represents the angular frequency.

[0088] In the embodiment of the present application, the reference wavelength is used as a known quantity, and the amplitude ratio is used to calculate the wavelength of the to-be-measured laser, which can improve the measurement accuracy. Especially in interference measurement, the amplitude and phase information have a close relationship, and by means of this method, the error in the measurement process can be reduced, and the high reliability of the result is ensured. At the same time, by using the known reference wavelength and the amplitude ratio of the measured signal, the need for high-precision spectrometer equipment or other complex measurement tools is avoided. This method is simple and effective, and the wavelength of the to-be-measured laser can be obtained through simple calculation, which reduces the requirements for experimental equipment and cost.

[0089] The technical scheme provided by the embodiment of the present application has at least the following beneficial effects:

[0090] In the embodiment of the present application, by introducing phase modulation and improved PGC-Arctan demodulation algorithm, the high requirements for experimental environment are effectively reduced, the system has stronger robustness to environmental factors such as noise and temperature change, thereby ensuring high-precision measurement in complex environment. Fast Fourier transform further enhances the accuracy of signal analysis, ensuring stability and consistency. The use of digital phase modulation and automatic demodulation technology eliminates the influence of human error and mechanical error, greatly improves the measurement accuracy and the stability of the system.
