TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The utility model relates to experimental teaching instrument technical field more specifically, relate to a kind of double-wavelength laser raman spectrum experimental instrument. BACKGROUND
[0002] Laser Raman spectrum experimental instrument can be used to analyze sample chemical composition, crystal structure, molecular orientation and intermolecular interaction information, and is widely used in petroleum, material, chemical industry, environmental protection, food, biology and geology and multiple fields.Currently, many colleges and universities have opened the teaching of "laser Raman spectrum" experiment of physics and chemistry and the like, and the experimental teaching equipment generally selects portable Raman spectrometer, such as a handheld Raman spectrum analyzer disclosed in the prior art, which is provided with a handle on the left side or right side of the box; a holding sensor is mounted on the outer side of the handle, and a trigger button is mounted at the fingertip when holding on the lower side or inner side of the handle; the handle is fixed on the same side of the box at both ends.
[0003] However, the same as the above prior art, the experimental instrument currently used for teaching basically integrates all components into a case to ensure the performance and stability of the instrument, and students can only test several samples as users of the instrument, so it is difficult for them to fully understand the structure inside the instrument and master the essentials of instrument adjustment.In addition, the Raman spectrometer currently used for experimental teaching is mostly single-wavelength, i.e., only one laser is provided as excitation light source, which causes some limitations to the design of experimental teaching content.For example, it is impossible to perform multi-wavelength comparison experiment, and students cannot study the difference in response of samples to different excitation wavelengths.In addition, some samples may show strong fluorescence background at this wavelength, which will mask the Raman signal, resulting in inaccurate experimental results. SUMMARY
[0004] In view of the problem that the laser Raman spectrum experimental instrument used for experimental teaching in the above prior art is of closed structure and adopts single-wavelength excitation light source, resulting in limited teaching content and teaching effect, the utility model provides a double-wavelength laser Raman spectrum experimental instrument, which can enable students to fully understand the internal structure of the instrument and the influence of different wavelength excitation light sources on experimental results, and improve the teaching effect.
[0005] To solve the above technical problems, the technical scheme provided by the utility model is:
[0006] The application discloses a dual-wavelength laser Raman spectrum experimental instrument, which comprises an external light path system, a monochromator and a photoelectric detector, the emitting end of the external light path system is connected with the receiving end of the monochromator, and the emitting end of the monochromator is connected with the receiving end of the photoelectric detector; the external light path system comprises a casing provided with a light path propagation cavity and a first laser, a long-pass filter, a first diaphragm, a second diaphragm, a short-focus achromatic lens, a sample stage and a long-focus achromatic lens which are all arranged in the light path propagation cavity; the instrument further comprises a second laser, a first reflector, a second reflector, a third reflector and an inclined hole reflector; the inclined hole reflector is located between the first diaphragm and the second diaphragm, the laser beam of the first laser passes through the first reflector, the long-pass filter, the first diaphragm, the inclined hole reflector, the second diaphragm, the short-focus achromatic lens, the inclined hole reflector and the sample stage in sequence, and the backscattering light beam generated by the sample on the sample stage under excitation of the laser passes through the short-focus achromatic lens, the second diaphragm, the inclined hole reflector and the long-focus achromatic lens in sequence; the wavelength of the second laser is longer than that of the first laser, and the laser beam of the second laser passes through the second reflector, the third reflector and the long-pass filter in sequence and then propagates in line with the laser beam of the first laser; the casing is provided with an opening which is in communication with the light path propagation cavity, and a flip cover is arranged on the opening.
[0007] When the above technical scheme is used, the sample is placed on the sample stage, and the student can open the first laser and / or the second laser according to needs. When the first laser is opened, the laser beam emitted by the first laser is reflected on the long-pass filter through the first reflector and then passes through the first diaphragm, the inclined hole reflector, the second diaphragm, the short-focus achromatic lens, the inclined hole reflector and the sample on the sample stage in sequence. The laser beam emitted by the second laser is reflected on the third reflector through the second reflector and then reflected on the long-pass filter through the third reflector and propagates in line with the laser beam of the first laser. The backscattering light generated by the sample under excitation of the laser beam is collimated into a parallel light beam after passing through the short-focus achromatic lens, passes through the second diaphragm which is opened, is reflected by the inclined hole reflector to change the direction (about 4% of the scattering light is lost through the small hole), is focused into the monochromator through the long-focus achromatic lens and enters the receiving end of the monochromator, that is, the entrance slit of the monochromator. The scattering light entering the monochromator is spread by the holographic grating and then focused out of the exit slit and is received by the photoelectric detector. The Raman spectrum of the sample to be measured can be scanned and recorded by rotating the grating in the monochromator under the control of a computer program.
[0008] The technical scheme has the following beneficial effects: the opening and the flip cover are arranged on the shell, so that the student can contact each element in the external light path system by opening the flip cover, and fully understand the layout of the experimental instrument and the function of each component. Moreover, the two lasers with different wavelengths are arranged, so that the student can switch the excitation wavelength of the Raman scattering spectrum through the computer program. On the one hand, the student can verify that the Raman shift is irrelevant to the excitation wavelength, and is only related to the structure of the vibration and rotation energy level of the sample to be measured. On the other hand, the student can verify that the selection of different excitation wavelengths has advantages and disadvantages. For example, some samples will generate a strong fluorescence signal background under excitation at a certain wavelength, so that the Raman peak signal is covered or the contrast is greatly reduced. Switching to another wavelength to excite the sample can weaken or eliminate the influence of fluorescence.
[0009] Preferably, the light path propagation cavity is provided with a concave mirror, and the sample stage is located between the concave mirror and the short-focus achromatic lens. If the sample to be measured is a transparent liquid, forward scattering light will also be generated when the sample is excited by the laser. The forward scattering light will pass through the liquid sample and be reflected back by the concave mirror, and then be focused on the original focus point of the sample again, and coincide with the propagation path of the backscattering light. At the same time, the remaining laser beam that passes through the transparent sample is also reflected back by the concave mirror and excites the sample again. The newly generated scattering light also coincides with the above-mentioned scattering light, and is finally focused on the entrance slit of the monochromator through the long-focus achromatic lens. Therefore, the intensity of the scattering light can be significantly increased. The remaining laser beam reflected back is also collimated by the short-focus achromatic lens, and because the beam diameter is small, the remaining laser beam will directly pass through the inclined hole mirror and the first diaphragm without being reflected to the direction of the entrance slit of the monochromator. Therefore, the concave mirror can enhance the intensity of the scattering light.
[0010] Preferably, the light path propagation cavity is provided with a first bidirectional translation stage and a unidirectional translation stage, the first bidirectional translation stage comprises a first slider and a second slider, the first slider is in sliding connection with the bottom of the light path propagation cavity, the second slider is in sliding connection with the first slider, the sliding directions of the first slider and the second slider are perpendicular to each other, and the sliding direction of one of the two is in the extension direction of the line connecting the first light barrier and the second light barrier; the sample stage is installed on the second slider; the unidirectional translation stage is in sliding connection with the bottom of the light path propagation cavity, the sliding direction of the unidirectional translation stage is in the extension direction of the line connecting the first light barrier and the second light barrier, and the concave mirror is installed on the unidirectional translation stage. Students can adjust the position of the sample on the sample stage by sliding the first slider and the second slider, so as to focus the laser beam on the sample. At the same time, the position of the concave mirror can be adjusted by sliding the unidirectional translation stage, so as to reflect the forward scattering light passing through the transparent liquid sample back to coincide with the back scattering light, and also reflect the remaining laser back to excite the sample again, thereby significantly enhancing the overall intensity of the scattered light and improving the signal-to-noise ratio of the Raman spectrum measurement.
[0011] Preferably, the light path propagation cavity is provided with a second bidirectional translation stage and a white screen plug-in board, the second bidirectional translation stage comprises a third slider and a fourth slider, the third slider is in sliding connection with the bottom of the light path propagation cavity, the fourth slider is in sliding connection with the third slider, the sliding directions of the fourth slider and the third slider are perpendicular to each other, and the sliding direction of one of the two is in the extension direction of the line connecting the inclined hole mirror and the monochromator receiving end; the long focal length achromatic lens is installed on the fourth slider; the white screen plug-in board is detachably connected with the fourth slider and is located between the trap filter and the long focal length achromatic lens, and a plurality of concentric circle structures are arranged on the side of the white screen plug-in board close to the trap filter, and the diameter of at least one of the concentric circle structures is equal to the clear aperture diameter of the short focal length achromatic lens. The second bidirectional translation stage is used to adjust the position of the long focal length achromatic lens so as to focus the scattered light into the entrance slit of the monochromator. The first bidirectional translation stage is carefully adjusted to adjust the focusing of the laser beam on the sample, until the scattered light reflected on the white screen plug-in board just fills the concentric circle structure with a diameter equal to the clear aperture diameter of the short focal length achromatic lens, at which time it can be determined that the scattered light is a collimated parallel light beam, and it also indicates that the focal point of the laser beam is just at the sample. When measuring a solid sample, the above method can be directly used to adjust the focusing of the laser beam to the surface of the sample. When measuring a liquid sample, a piece of white paper or film can be inserted into the empty cuvette, and then the cuvette is placed on the sample stage, so as to adjust the focusing of the laser beam and the collimation of the scattered light.
[0012] When the sample is solid, it is inconvenient to place and fix the sample vertically, especially for the case of powder sample.

The laser beam focused by the short focal length achromatic lens is reflected vertically downward by the fourth mirror to the solid (powder or flake) sample on the solid support plate, and careful adjustment of the first two-way translation stage can make the focal point of the laser located on the surface of the sample. The backscattered light generated thereby is collimated into parallel light after the fourth mirror and the short focal length achromatic lens, and is guided to the entrance slit of the monochromator, at this time the concave mirror is blocked by the fourth mirror and does not play a role.

The notch filter can weaken the background noise formed by Rayleigh scattering light in the monochromator.

If it is necessary to measure the depolarization ratio of Raman spectrum, the polarizer and the analyzer are inserted into the optical path, and then the Raman spectrum of the sample to be measured under the conditions that the polarization directions of the polarizer and the analyzer are parallel to each other and perpendicular to each other is scanned and recorded respectively, and the symmetry of the vibration mode corresponding to each Raman peak is judged by calculating the depolarization ratio of each Raman peak of the sample to be measured.

[0016] Preferably, the optical path propagation cavity is provided with an element rack.
[0017] Preferably, a push rod is arranged at the receiving end of the monochromator, the push rod is in sliding connection with the monochromator, the sliding direction of the push rod is perpendicular to the extension direction of the line connecting the long-focus achromatic lens and the receiving end of the monochromator, and a photoelectric probe is arranged on the push rod.
[0018] The utility model discloses the beneficial effect that:
[0019] 1. It is favorable to improve the teaching effect. The cover is arranged on the casing, and students can contact each element in the external optical path system through the cover, and fully understand the layout of the experimental instrument and the function of each component.

On the one hand, students can verify that the Raman shift is irrelevant to the excitation wavelength, and is only related to the structure of the vibration and rotation energy level of the sample to be measured. On the other hand, students can verify that the selection of different excitation wavelengths has advantages and disadvantages. For example, some samples may generate a strong fluorescence signal background under excitation of a certain wavelength, so that the Raman peak signal is covered or the contrast is greatly reduced. By switching to another wavelength to excite the sample, the influence of fluorescence can be weakened or eliminated.

[0038] Specifically, the first diaphragm 6 and the second diaphragm 7 are fixedly installed in the optical path propagation cavity 301 to serve as the reference for adjusting the laser beam.
[0039] Specifically, the embodiment adopts a high-sensitivity single-photon counter type photomultiplier tube as the photodetector 2 to receive the Raman spectrum signal of the sample to be measured.
[0040] Specifically, two narrow-line-width lasers with a line width ≤0.2nm are selected as the first laser 4 and the second laser 11. The wavelengths of the two lasers can be optional. It is recommended to select commonly used semiconductor lasers or solid-state lasers, such as selecting two from the following wavelengths: 405nm, 450nm, 520nm, 532nm, 650nm, 785nm and 808nm.
[0041] Further, a notch filter 21 is detachably installed in the optical path propagation cavity 301, and the notch filter 21 is located between the slotted mirror 15 and the long-focus achromatic lens 10.

[0047] Embodiment 2
[0048] This embodiment is a second embodiment of a dual-wavelength laser Raman spectroscopy experimental instrument. This embodiment is similar to Embodiment 1, except that a concave mirror 16 is provided inside the optical path propagation cavity 301, and the sample stage 9 is located between the concave mirror 16 and the short-focal-length achromatic lens 8. If the sample to be tested is a transparent liquid, it will generate forward-scattered light when excited by the laser. This forward-scattered light will pass through the liquid sample and be reflected back by the concave mirror 16, refocusing onto the original focal point of the sample and coinciding with the propagation path of the aforementioned backscattered light. Simultaneously, the remaining laser beam passing through the transparent sample is also reflected back by the concave mirror 16 and re-excites the sample. The newly generated scattered light will also coincide with the aforementioned scattered light, ultimately being focused by the long-focal-length achromatic lens 10 onto the entrance slit 26 of the monochromator 1, thus significantly increasing the intensity of the scattered light. The reflected remaining laser beam is also collimated by the short-focal-length achromatic lens 8. Due to its smaller beam diameter, it will directly pass through the oblique-aperture mirror 15 and the first aperture 6 without being reflected towards the entrance slit 26 of the monochromator 1. Therefore, the concave reflector 16 can enhance the intensity of scattered light.
[0049] Furthermore, the optical path propagation cavity 301 is provided with a first bidirectional translation stage 17 and a unidirectional translation stage 18, combined with Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the first bidirectional translation stage 17 includes a first slider 1701 and a second slider 1702. The first slider 1701 is slidably connected to the bottom of the optical path propagation cavity 301, and the second slider 1702 is slidably connected to the first slider 1701. The sliding directions of the first slider 1701 and the second slider 1702 are perpendicular to each other, and the sliding direction of one of them is along the extension direction of the line connecting the first aperture 6 and the second aperture 7. The sample stage 9 is mounted on the second slider 1702. The unidirectional translation stage 18 is slidably connected to the bottom of the optical path propagation cavity 301. The sliding direction of the unidirectional translation stage 18 is along the extension direction of the line connecting the first aperture 6 and the second aperture 7. The concave mirror 16 is mounted on the unidirectional translation stage 18. Students can adjust the position of the sample on the sample stage 9 by sliding the first slider 1701 and the second slider 1702, thereby focusing the laser beam onto the sample. Simultaneously, the position of the concave reflector 16 can be adjusted by sliding the unidirectional translation stage 18, thereby reflecting the forward scattered light passing through the transparent liquid sample back to coincide with the backscattered light, and also reflecting the remaining laser back to excite the sample again, thus significantly enhancing the overall intensity of the scattered light and improving the signal-to-noise ratio of Raman spectroscopy measurements.
[0050] Furthermore, combined Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the optical path propagation cavity 301 is equipped with a second bidirectional translation stage 19 and a white screen insert plate 20. The structure of the second bidirectional translation stage 19 can be found in [reference needed]. Figure 2The structure of the first bidirectional translation stage 17 includes a third slider and a fourth slider. The third slider is in sliding connection with the bottom of the light path propagation cavity 301. The fourth slider is in sliding connection with the third slider. The sliding direction of the fourth slider is perpendicular to that of the third slider. The sliding direction of one of the two is in the extension direction of the line connecting the inclined hole mirror 15 and the receiving end of the monochromator 1. The long-focus achromatic lens 10 is installed on the fourth slider. The white screen plug-in board 20 is in detachable connection with the fourth slider and is located between the wave filter 21 and the long-focus achromatic lens 10. Three concentric circle structures 2002 are arranged on the side of the white screen plug-in board 20 close to the wave filter 21. The diameter of the concentric circle structure 2002 in the middle is equal to the light passing diameter of the short-focus achromatic lens 8. Specifically, the top of the fourth slider is provided with two first insertion slots. The bottom of the white screen plug-in board 20 is provided with two first insertion pins 2001. The first insertion pins 2001 are inserted into the first insertion slots one by one. In the implementation, the white screen plug-in board 20 can be inserted on the fourth slider of the second bidirectional translation stage 19 and located in front of the long-focus achromatic lens 10 (at this time, the wave filter 21 is removed). Then, the first bidirectional translation stage 17 is carefully adjusted until the scattered light reflected on the white screen plug-in board 20 just fills the concentric circle structure 2002. At this time, it can be determined that the scattered light is a collimated parallel light beam at this time, which also indicates that the focal point of the laser beam is just at the sample. When measuring a solid sample, the above method can be directly used to adjust the laser focusing to the sample surface. When measuring a liquid sample, a piece of white paper or film can be inserted into the empty cuvette, and then the cuvette is placed on the sample stage 9, so as to adjust the focusing of the laser beam and the collimation of the scattered light.
[0051] When the sample is a solid, it is not very convenient to vertically place and fix the sample, especially for the case of a powder sample. Therefore further, in combination with Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figures 5 to 8As shown, the sample stage 9 comprises a solid support plate 901 and a fourth mirror 902, the solid support plate 901 is detachably connected with the second sliding block 1702; the fourth mirror 902 is detachably connected with the solid support plate 901, the fourth mirror 902 is provided with a sample groove 9011, and a part of the mirror surface of the fourth mirror 902 is located directly above the sample groove 9011 and forms a 45° angle with the top surface of the solid support plate 901. Specifically, the second sliding block 1702 is provided with four second insertion grooves 1703, the bottom of the solid support plate 901 is provided with four second insertion pins 903, and the second insertion pins 903 are inserted into the second insertion grooves 1703 one by one; the top of the solid support plate 901 is provided with two third insertion grooves 9012, and the fourth mirror 902 is provided with two third insertion pins 904, which are inserted into the third insertion grooves 9012 one by one. The laser beam focused by the short-focus achromatic lens 8 is reflected vertically downward by the fourth mirror 902 to the solid powder or flaky sample on the solid support plate 901, and careful adjustment of the first bidirectional translation stage 17 can make the focal point of the laser located on the sample surface. The backscattered light generated thereby is collimated into parallel light after passing through the fourth mirror 902 and the short-focus achromatic lens 8, and is directed to the entrance slit 26 of the monochromator 1, at this time the concave mirror 16 will be blocked by the fourth mirror 902 and will not play a role. The sample stage 9 is inserted on the second sliding block 1702 through the third insertion pins 904, so that the sample stage 9 can be quickly replaced.
