Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the field of optics, in particular to an optical device and a laser light source device. Background Art
[0002] Femtosecond laser is an extremely short pulse laser technology with a pulse width in the femtosecond range (i.e. 10^-15 seconds) and extremely high power density and spatial resolution. This laser is named for its extremely short pulse width and can perform a variety of micromachining operations such as cold working, drilling, scribing, and cutting.
[0003] A spatial light modulator is commonly used in the optical path of a femtosecond laser. A spatial light modulator is an optical device used to modulate the spatial distribution of light waves. It changes certain parameters of the light field, such as amplitude, phase, and polarization state, by actively controlling liquid crystal molecules.
[0004] Currently, the femtosecond lasers entering and exiting a spatial light modulator (SLM) typically have a certain angle. This requires the femtosecond laser to be at least 1 meter away from the SLM in order to separate the incoming and outgoing light and allow the separated light to be used by subsequent equipment. This often requires the SLM's optical path to occupy a significant amount of space, resulting in wasted space. This is particularly true on optical breadboards, where insufficient space often prevents the SLM from being used. Utility Model Content

[0058] The present invention will be described more clearly and completely below by way of embodiments in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, but the present invention is not limited to the scope of the embodiments.
[0059] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, this embodiment includes an optical device 100 and a laser light source device 500 . The laser light source device 500 includes the optical device 100 .
[0060] Combine Figure 1The optical device 100 includes: a base 11, a first incident reflector assembly 12, a double reflection assembly 20 and a first exit reflector assembly 41. The first incident reflector assembly 12 is arranged on the base 11, and the input light beam 91 is incident on the first incident reflector assembly 12; the double reflection assembly 20 is arranged on the base 11, and the double reflection assembly 20 has a front reflection surface 21 and a rear reflection surface 22. After being reflected by the first incident reflector assembly 12, the input light beam 91 is sequentially incident on the front reflection surface 21 and the spatial light modulator 51. The spatial light modulator 51 adjusts the input light beam 91 into an output light beam 92 and emits the output light beam 92 to the rear reflection surface 22; the first exit reflector assembly 41 is arranged on the base 11, and the output light beam 92 is incident on the first exit reflector assembly 41 through the rear reflection surface 22. The first incident reflector assembly 12 is used to reflect the input light beam 91 onto the front reflective surface 21 of the dual reflector assembly 20. The front reflective surface 21 reflects the input light beam 91 onto the spatial light modulator 51. The spatial light modulator 51 modulates the input light beam 91 into an output light beam 92. The spatial light modulator 51 then projects the output light beam 92 onto the rear reflective surface 22 of the dual reflector assembly 20. The rear reflective surface 22 reflects the output light beam 92 onto the first output reflector assembly 41. The dual reflector assembly 20 can be positioned adjacent to the spatial light modulator 51. The input light beam 91 can be reflected from the front reflective surface 21, and the output light beam 92 can also be reflected from the rear reflective surface 22. The input light beam 91 and the output light beam 92 can be easily separated, which can save space and achieve collimation of the output light beam 92.
[0061] The dual reflective assembly 20 can be understood as comprising components capable of providing two or more reflective surfaces. Specifically, it may include a prism, a quadrangular prism, a pentaprism, etc. The prism may specifically be a right-angle prism. As an embodiment, the angle between the front reflective surface 21 and the rear reflective surface 22 ranges from 45° to 135°.
[0062] The front reflective surface 21 and the rear reflective surface 22 are merely for the purpose of distinguishing the optical paths of the input light beam 91 and the output light beam 92 and have no other meaning. The first output reflective mirror assembly 41, the second incident reflective mirror assembly 13, the first output reflective mirror assembly 41, the second output reflective mirror assembly 42, the input light beam 91, and the output light beam 92 are merely for the purpose of distinguishing and have no other meaning.
[0063] The base 11 can be understood to include components that can play a supporting role. In this example, the base 11 adopts a split design. In other examples, the base 11 can be an integral body.
[0064] In the field of optics, the input light wave that illuminates the entire device and is modulated is generally referred to as "readout light," while the light wave that exits after passing through spatial light modulator 51 is referred to as "output light." The readout light typically illuminates all pixels of spatial light modulator 51 and receives information transmitted by the write light or write electrical signal, which is then modulated or converted into output light. In this example, the input light wave is input beam 91, and the output light is output beam 92.
[0065] In this example, the dual reflective assembly 20 includes a triangular reflector 23. The side of the triangular reflector 23 facing the first incident reflector assembly 12 is a front reflective surface 21, and the side of the triangular reflector 23 facing the first exit reflector assembly 41 is a rear reflective surface 22. The triangular reflector 23 has a simple structure and can make the optical device 100 more compact. In other examples, two reflectors can also be used to form the dual reflective assembly 20.
[0066] The dual reflector assembly 20 further includes a fixed base 24, a floating base 25, and a fine-tuning rod 26. The triangular reflector 23 is disposed on the floating base 25, which is connected to the fixed base 24. The fine-tuning rod 26 is used to adjust the position of the floating base 25 relative to the fixed base 24. The fine-tuning rod 26 is used to adjust the position of the floating base 25 relative to the fixed base 24, thereby achieving adjustment of the triangular reflector 23, which can better adjust the input light beam 91 and the output light beam 92.
[0067] The dual reflection assembly 20 further includes a horizontal tube 27, which is disposed on the floating seat 25. The horizontal tube 27 is used to display the horizontal state of the floating seat 25, so as to assist in adjusting the position of the triangular reflector 23. Figure 3 The horizontal tube 27 is not shown. The horizontal tube 27 in the double reflection assembly 20 can be combined Figure 4 The setting of the middle horizontal pipe 27.
[0068] The dual reflection assembly 20 also includes a column 28, a sleeve 29 and a fixing member 30. The sleeve 29 is provided on the base 11, the column 28 is inserted into the sleeve 29, and the fixing member 30 is used to fix the column 28 relative to the sleeve 29; the fixing seat 24 is provided at the upper end of the column 28. The column 28 is inserted into the sleeve 29 to facilitate the rotation and lifting of the column 28 relative to the sleeve 29. The fixing member 30 facilitates the fixing of the column 28, making the dual reflection assembly 20 more stable. Figure 4 It can be understood that the dual reflection assembly 20, the first incident reflector assembly 12, the second incident reflector assembly 13, the first exit reflector assembly 41 and the second exit reflector assembly 42 can all include a column 28, a sleeve 29 and a fixing member 30 of similar structure.
[0069] The first incident reflector assembly 12 and the first exit reflector assembly 41 are symmetrically arranged relative to the dual reflector assembly 20. The symmetrical arrangement of the first incident reflector assembly 12 and the first exit reflector assembly 41 facilitates the collimation of the output light beam 92.
[0070] The input light beam 91 incident on the first incident reflector assembly 12 is parallel to the output light beam 92 from the first exit reflector assembly 41 , so as to facilitate the collimation of the output light beam 92 .
[0071] The optical device 100 further includes a second incident reflector assembly 13. The input beam is incident on the second incident reflector assembly and then on the first incident reflector assembly. The second incident reflector assembly 13 can better adapt to the angle of the incident beam.
[0072] The optical device 100 further includes a second output reflector assembly 42. The output light beam 92 is incident on the first output reflector assembly 13 and then incident on the second output reflector assembly 42. The second output reflector assembly 42 can better control the angle of the output light beam 92.
[0073] By utilizing the dual reflective assembly 20, the optical device 100 can separate the input light beam 91 and the output light beam 92 entering and exiting the spatial light modulator 51 along a very short optical path. In a conventional structure using a plane reflector, the optical path length inevitably exceeds one meter. However, the optical device 100 of this embodiment utilizes the dual reflective assembly 20, reducing the optical path length entering and exiting the spatial light modulator 51 to less than 0.1 meters. This significantly saves space and greatly shortens the optical path length of the spatial light modulator 51, enabling alignment of the input light beam 91 and the output light beam 92 so that they are parallel.
[0074] As an implementation manner, the distance between the dual reflection component 20 and the panel of the spatial light modulator 51 can be controlled to be 5 cm-50 cm.
[0075] This embodiment may also include a laser light source device 500, which includes a femtosecond laser generating device, a spatial light modulation device, and the optical device 100 described above. The light beam generated by the femtosecond laser generating device is emitted into the spatial light modulation device via the optical device 100, modulated by the spatial light modulation device, and then emitted into the optical device 100. The laser light source device 500 utilizes the optical device 100, which can save space, improve the compactness of the laser light source device 500, and ensure the collimation of the output light beam 92.
[0076] The femtosecond laser generating device may be understood to include a device capable of generating femtosecond laser, and the spatial light modulation device may be understood to include a device capable of modulating femtosecond laser.
