Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of laser wavefront detection, in particular to a time resolution measuring instrument based on nanosecond pulse laser. Background Art

[0002] Multi-path interferometry is an advanced optical measurement technology that uses the interference phenomenon of two or more coherent light waves to perform precise measurements. The core of this technology is the principle of optical interference, that is, when two or more coherent light beams meet in space, they interact with each other to form interference fringes.

[0003] Optical time-resolved measurement technology is a technology used to detect and measure fast physical processes that occur on a time scale. It can provide time resolution for transient events and is usually used to analyze changes in optical signals or material states in a very short time. Optical time-resolved measurement technology usually relies on short-pulse lasers or ultrafast optical systems.

[0004] Nanosecond pulse laser technology is a technology that uses lasers to generate extremely short pulses, where the duration of each pulse is in nanoseconds (1 nanosecond = 10 -9 Seconds). For nanosecond pulse lasers, there is a spectral phase interferometry method, which obtains the phase information of the pulse by measuring the spectral interference between two frequency-shifted pulses. This method can provide very accurate time-resolved phase and amplitude information and is suitable for the measurement of extremely short pulses, but its time resolution is limited and may be insufficient when dealing with long pulses or very complex pulse shapes.
