Detailed Implementation
[0019] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this application clearer, the following detailed description is provided in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative and not intended to limit the scope of this application.
[0020] Furthermore, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of technical features indicated. Thus, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of that feature. In the description of this application, "multiple" means two or more, unless otherwise explicitly specified.
[0021] Figure 1 This is a flowchart illustrating a pre-compensation laser power control method in one embodiment.
[0022] In this embodiment, as Figure 1 As shown, the pre-compensated laser power control method is applied to the laser power-on process, and the pre-compensated laser power control method includes steps 102 to 106.
[0023] Step 102: Obtain the laser adjustment efficiency value of the multi-stage spatial optical path before the laser warm-up is completed, and the frequency conversion target power after the warm-up is completed.
[0024] The laser adjustment efficiency value can be the efficiency level when adjusting the laser power and frequency before the laser warm-up is complete. The frequency conversion target power can be the stable output power value expected to be achieved after the laser frequency conversion process is completed.
[0025] Laser modulation efficiency values include acousto-optic crystal efficiency and frequency conversion efficiency. Acousto-optic crystal efficiency refers to the efficiency of laser modulation via the acousto-optic crystal before the laser warm-up is complete. Frequency conversion efficiency refers to the efficiency of frequency conversion of the laser before the laser warm-up is complete.
[0026] It should be noted that the modulation effect of acousto-optic crystals can also be replaced by other methods that can adjust the power in real time, such as using a combination of electrically tunable waveplates and polarization beam splitters / thin-film polarizers to adjust the laser power.
[0027] Step 104: Determine the fundamental frequency compensation power of the laser during the warm-up process based on the acousto-optic crystal efficiency, frequency conversion efficiency, and frequency conversion target power.
[0028] The fundamental frequency compensation power during the warm-up process can be based on the laser adjustment efficiency value before warm-up and the target power output value after warm-up. It represents the fundamental frequency power that needs to be pre-compensated during the warm-up process, i.e., the fundamental frequency power required to specifically compensate for power fluctuations or attenuation during the laser's warm-up. Optionally, the fundamental frequency compensation power during the warm-up process can be the fundamental frequency laser power before acousto-optic interaction, i.e., the fundamental frequency laser power before the acousto-optic interaction.
[0029] Based on the acousto-optic crystal efficiency, frequency conversion efficiency, and frequency conversion target power, the following scenarios determine the fundamental frequency compensation power during the laser warm-up process: using the laser adjustment efficiency value before warm-up completion as a condition and the power output target value after warm-up completion as a target, the fundamental frequency power during the warm-up process is compensated and adjusted until the laser power output under the action of the laser adjustment efficiency value and the fundamental frequency power during the warm-up process reaches the power output target value after warm-up completion.
[0030] It should be noted that since the laser adjustment efficiency value changes with the duration of the warm-up process, in order to ensure that the laser power output under the action of the laser adjustment efficiency value and the fundamental frequency power reaches the target power output value after the warm-up is completed, the fundamental frequency compensation power of the laser during the warm-up process also needs to adapt to the laser adjustment efficiency value.
[0031] Step 106: Determine the laser's output power control command based on the fundamental frequency compensation power and frequency conversion target power during the warm-up process.
[0032] Output power control commands can be formed based on the fundamental frequency compensation power and frequency conversion target power during the warm-up process. These commands are adaptable to different laser adjustment efficiencies and output power conditions before and after laser warm-up. Output power control commands include those during the laser warm-up process and those after the laser warm-up is complete.
[0033] The scenarios for determining the laser's output power control command based on the fundamental frequency compensation power and frequency conversion target power during the warm-up process include: determining the laser's output power control command during the warm-up process based on the fundamental frequency compensation power; determining the laser's output power control command after the warm-up process is completed based on the frequency conversion target power; and determining the laser's output power control command based on both the output power control commands during and after the warm-up process.
[0034] The pre-compensated laser power control method provided in this embodiment determines the fundamental frequency compensation power for the laser warm-up process during laser startup, based on the laser adjustment efficiency value (such as acousto-optic crystal efficiency and frequency conversion efficiency) before the laser warm-up is completed and the target frequency conversion power after the warm-up is completed. This power compensation can specifically compensate for power fluctuations or attenuation during the laser warm-up process. Furthermore, based on the obtained fundamental frequency compensation power and the target frequency conversion power after the warm-up, an output power control command is determined that adapts to different laser adjustment efficiencies and output power conditions before and after the laser warm-up is completed. This ensures sufficient laser power output even when the laser adjustment efficiency value is low, effectively mitigating the problem of light polarization caused by temperature changes during laser startup, which prevents the output power from reaching the expected level. It guarantees the stability of the output power during laser startup, ensuring a smooth and continuous power transition before and after warm-up. Ideally, the laser can emit light immediately after a cold start and maintain stable power output, thereby significantly shortening the laser warm-up time and meeting higher requirements for laser processing.
[0035] Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of the specific process of step 104 in one embodiment.
[0036] In this embodiment, as Figure 2 As shown, step 104 includes sub-steps 202 to 204.
[0037] Step 202: Determine the acousto-optic fundamental frequency power of the laser based on the frequency conversion efficiency and the target frequency conversion power.
[0038] The following scenarios, based on frequency conversion efficiency and target frequency conversion power, determine the acousto-optic fundamental frequency power of a laser: adjusting the laser spatial optical path, the temperature and angle of the frequency conversion crystal based on the frequency conversion efficiency to determine the adjusted frequency conversion efficiency; and determining the acousto-optic fundamental frequency power of the laser based on the adjusted frequency conversion efficiency and target frequency conversion power.
[0039] The specific scenarios for determining the acousto-optic fundamental frequency power of a laser based on frequency conversion efficiency and target frequency conversion power include: Pn1=Pm1 / Z1 In the formula, Pn1 represents the fundamental frequency power after acousto-optic conversion, Pm1 represents the target power of frequency conversion, and Z1 represents the adjusted frequency conversion efficiency.
[0040] Step 204: Determine the fundamental frequency compensation power of the laser during the warm-up process based on the acousto-optic crystal efficiency and the fundamental frequency power after acousto-optic operation.
[0041] The following scenarios determine the fundamental frequency compensation power for the laser's warm-up process based on the acousto-optic crystal efficiency and the acousto-optic post-fundamental frequency power: Adjusting the laser spatial optical path, the angle of the acousto-optic crystal, and the operating voltage based on the acousto-optic crystal efficiency to determine the adjusted acousto-optic crystal efficiency; and determining the fundamental frequency compensation power for the laser's warm-up process based on the adjusted acousto-optic crystal efficiency and the acousto-optic post-fundamental frequency power.
[0042] The specific scenarios for determining the fundamental frequency compensation power during the laser's warm-up process, based on the acousto-optic crystal efficiency and the post-acoustic-optic fundamental frequency power, include: Pn2=Pm2 / Z2 In the formula, Pn2 represents the fundamental frequency compensation power during the warm-up process, Pm2 represents the fundamental frequency power after the acousto-optic process, and Z2 represents the adjusted acousto-optic crystal efficiency.
[0043] By adjusting the laser's spatial optical path and laser processing crystal (such as adjusting the angle and temperature of the frequency conversion crystal to change the frequency conversion efficiency, and adjusting the angle and operating voltage of the acousto-optic crystal to change the acousto-optic crystal efficiency), and using the adjusted laser adjustment efficiency value as a condition and the target power output value after warm-up as the objective, the fundamental frequency power during the warm-up process is compensated and adjusted until the laser adjustment efficiency value and the laser power output under the action of the fundamental frequency power during the warm-up process reach the target power output value after warm-up. This effectively ensures the accuracy and efficiency of the fundamental frequency power compensation adjustment during the warm-up process.
[0044] Figure 3 This is a schematic diagram of the specific process of step 104 in one embodiment.
[0045] In this embodiment, as Figure 3 As shown, step 104 includes sub-steps 302 to 304.
[0046] In step 302, when the spatial optical path of the laser is a multi-stage frequency conversion optical path, the frequency conversion target power of the preceding optical path in the multi-stage frequency conversion optical path is determined based on the frequency conversion efficiency and frequency conversion target power of the subsequent optical path in the multi-stage frequency conversion optical path.
[0047] A multi-stage frequency conversion optical path can be a spatial propagation optical path formed by multiple frequency conversion crystal layers. The target power of the frequency conversion in the preceding stage optical path can be the desired output power achieved by the preceding stage optical path after frequency conversion processing in a multi-stage frequency conversion optical path.
[0048] The specific scenarios for determining the target frequency conversion power of the preceding optical stage in a multi-stage frequency conversion optical path, based on the frequency conversion efficiency and target power of the subsequent optical stage, include: Pj1=Pj2 / Zj2 In the formula, Pj1 represents the target frequency conversion power of the front-stage optical path, Zj2 represents the frequency conversion efficiency of the rear-stage optical path, and Pj2 represents the target frequency conversion power of the rear-stage optical path.
[0049] Step 304: Based on the target frequency conversion power and frequency conversion efficiency of the preceding optical path in the multi-stage frequency conversion optical path, determine the fundamental frequency compensation power of the laser's multi-stage frequency conversion optical path during the warm-up process.
[0050] Based on the target power and frequency conversion efficiency of the preceding optical stage in a multi-stage frequency conversion optical path, the specific scenarios for determining the fundamental frequency compensation power during the warm-up process of the laser's multi-stage frequency conversion optical path include: Pn2=Pj1 / Zj1 In the formula, Pn2 represents the fundamental frequency compensation power during the warm-up process, Pj1 represents the frequency conversion target power of the front-end optical path, and Zj1 represents the frequency conversion efficiency of the front-end optical path.
[0051] It should be noted that, since the nonlinear frequency conversion process of laser is polarization-sensitive, rotating the half-wave plate passing through the fundamental frequency laser (used to adjust the polarization state of the fundamental frequency laser) will have a significant impact on the frequency conversion efficiency. Secondly, the nonlinear frequency conversion process is also sensitive to the angle and temperature of the frequency conversion crystal. Adjustable frames and temperature control units are usually installed at the crystal, and changing the angle or temperature can also control the conversion efficiency. Finally, the input of the frequency conversion crystal of the subsequent stage in this multi-stage frequency conversion system is the output of the frequency conversion crystal of the previous stage (in some systems, the output of the previous stage and the remaining fundamental frequency are used as the input). Therefore, if the frequency conversion efficiency of the previous stage changes, the input of the subsequent stage will change, thus affecting the input power of the subsequent stage.
[0052] It should be understood that although the steps in the flowchart above are shown sequentially as indicated by the arrows, these steps are not necessarily executed in the order indicated by the arrows. Unless explicitly stated herein, there is no strict order restriction on the execution of these steps, and they can be executed in other orders. Moreover, at least one sub-step described above may include multiple sub-steps or multiple stages. These sub-steps or stages are not necessarily completed at the same time, but can be executed at different times. The execution order of these sub-steps or stages is not necessarily sequential, but can be performed alternately or in turn with other steps or at least a portion of the sub-steps or stages of other steps. It should be noted that the different embodiments described above can be combined with each other.
