[0027] The high-temperature aging box 11 provides a constant current to the target material, so that the target material is stable in light;

[0028] The aging plate 12 for carrying the target material is arranged in the high-temperature aging box 11 along a direction perpendicular to the height direction of the high-temperature aging box 11;

[0029] The spectrum test circuit comprises a collimator 13 arranged in the high-temperature aging box 11, and the collimator 13 is movably arranged above the aging plate 12 along the height direction of the high-temperature aging box 11 and along the direction parallel to the aging plate 12, so as to obtain the spectrum of the target material at different positions.

[0031] Further, the high-temperature aging device provided by the embodiment further comprises a junction temperature calculation module (not shown) configured to calculate the junction temperature of the target material at different set temperatures of the high-temperature aging box 11 according to the spectrum of the target material at different temperatures.

[0032] Optionally, the junction temperature calculation module is communicatively connected with the spectrum testing circuit or integrated with the spectrum testing circuit. In addition to the collimator 13, the spectrum testing circuit in the embodiment can further comprise a multimode optical fiber 15 and a spectrometer 16, the spectrometer 16 is located outside the high-temperature aging box 11, the multimode optical fiber 15 is arranged through the high-temperature aging box 11, and the collimator 13 and the spectrometer 16 are connected through the multimode optical fiber 15. The junction temperature calculation module can be communicatively connected with the spectrometer 16 or integrated with the spectrometer 16. After the spectrometer 16 acquires the spectrum of the target material at different positions, the relevant information is transmitted to the junction temperature calculation module, so that the junction temperature calculation module calculates the junction temperature of the target material at different set temperatures of the high-temperature aging box 11 according to the spectrum of the target material at different temperatures.

[0033] In order to facilitate the movement of the collimator 13, preferably, the high-temperature aging device provided by the embodiment further comprises a support (not shown). The support is movably arranged in the high-temperature aging box 11 along the height direction of the high-temperature aging box 11 and along the direction parallel to the aging plate 12. The collimator 13 is fixed below the support and moves with the movement of the support. Generally, the high-temperature aging box 11 is vertically arranged on the ground, so the support can be understood as being movably arranged in the vertical direction and the horizontal direction in general cases.

[0034] The support can be arranged in the high-temperature aging box 11 by any suitable manner. For example, one of the support and the high-temperature aging box 11 is provided with a guide groove, and the other is provided with a guide rail. The guide rail is embedded in the guide groove and moves along the extension path of the guide groove, so as to realize the relative movement between the support and the high-temperature aging box 11. For example, the opposite two side walls of the high-temperature aging box 11 are provided with first grooves along the height direction of the high-temperature aging box 11, and the top wall of the high-temperature aging box 11 is provided with second grooves with a specific extension path in the horizontal direction.

[0036] In this embodiment, the box body of the high-temperature aging box 11 is provided with a through hole for the penetration of the connecting rod and the multi-mode optical fiber 15. Preferably, the through holes for the penetration of the connecting rod and the multi-mode optical fiber 15 are located at different side walls of the high-temperature aging box 11 to avoid interference between different arrangements. In order to facilitate penetration, the aperture of the through hole for the penetration of the connecting rod should be larger than the diameter of the connecting rod, and the aperture of the through hole for the penetration of the multi-mode optical fiber 15 should be larger than the diameter of the multi-mode optical fiber 15. In order to maintain the stability of the temperature inside the high-temperature aging box 11, heat insulation cotton can be used to cover each through hole.

[0037] The movement of the collimator 13 in the height direction of the high-temperature aging box 11 is one-dimensional, and the movement of the collimator 13 in the direction parallel to the aging plate 12 can be one-dimensional or two-dimensional. When the movement is one-dimensional, the corresponding guide groove is linear, and when the movement is two-dimensional, the corresponding guide groove is curved or has linear segments in two orthogonal directions.

[0038] Preferably, the aging plate 12 has a plurality of fixed point positions, each of which is used to place a target material. The distribution positions of the plurality of fixed point positions correspond one-to-one to a plurality of movement points of the collimator 13 in the direction parallel to the aging plate 12. Specifically, the plurality of fixed point positions can be arranged at equal unit distances. In this way, when the collimator 13 moves the unit distance, it can be known that the collimator 13 is located above which target material. This is conducive to alignment and improves the accuracy of data, and is also conducive to the accurate correspondence of data.

[0039] In the embodiment, the high-temperature aging box 11 is sequentially provided with a plurality of bearing planes along the height direction of the high-temperature aging box 11, and the aging plate 12 is detachably arranged on one of the bearing planes. The position of the bracket in the height direction of the high-temperature aging box 11 is adjusted according to the bearing plane on which the aging plate 12 is arranged, so that the spectrum of the target material carried by the aging plate 12 can be captured by the spectrum testing circuit.
