[0028] Referring to Figure 1, this embodiment provides an optical path compensation adjustment system 100, including a laser unit 110, a delay line adjustment unit 120, a frequency summing unit 130, and a detector 140. The laser unit 110 is used to emit a first laser 111a and a second laser 112a. The delay line adjustment unit 120 is disposed between the laser unit 110 and the frequency summing unit 130, and includes a driver 123, a first reflector 121 and a second reflector 122 arranged sequentially along the optical path, with the second reflector 122 being drivenly connected to the driver 123. The first laser 111a is directly incident on the frequency summing unit 130, and the second laser 112a is incident on the frequency summing unit 130 after being reflected sequentially by the first reflector 121 and the second reflector 122. The frequency summing unit 130 is used to mix the first laser 111a and the second laser 112a. 11a and 112a are used to emit a sum-frequency laser 160 towards detector 140; detector 140 is signal-connected to driver 123, detector 140 receives the sum-frequency laser 160 and generates a feedback signal, driver 123 drives second reflector 122 to move along a first direction a to move closer to or further away from first reflector 121 according to the feedback signal, and / or drives second reflector 122 to rotate to adjust the angle between the mirror normal of second reflector 122 and the optical axis of second laser 112a reflected by first reflector 121; and / or drives second reflector 122 to move relative to first reflector 121 along a second direction b; first direction a is perpendicular to the emission direction of first laser 111a, and first direction a is perpendicular to second direction b.
[0029] Specifically, as shown in Figure 1, the laser unit 110 consistently emits two different lasers, namely a first laser 111a and a second laser 112a. These two lasers are transmitted through different optical paths and are ultimately mixed at the frequency mixing unit 130.
[0030] The first laser 111a, emitted from the laser unit 110, directly enters the frequency-switching unit 130, making its optical path relatively simple and direct. The second laser 112a, however, needs to pass through the delay line adjustment unit 120. The delay line adjustment unit 120 changes the transmission path length of the laser, thereby enabling flexible adjustment of the optical path and achieving spatiotemporal synchronization of multi-wavelength lasers.
[0031] As shown in Figure 1, the delay line adjustment unit 120 includes a first reflector 121 and a second reflector 122 disposed along the optical path. The first reflector 121 and the second reflector 122 are used to change the direction of the optical path. The second laser 112a can be reflected sequentially by the first reflector 121 and the second reflector 122 and then incident parallel to the first laser 111a into the frequency response unit 130. The delay line adjustment unit 120 also includes a driver 123, which is drivenly connected to the second reflector 122.
[0032] As shown in Figure 3, the driver 123 can drive the second reflector 122 to move along the first direction a to approach or move away from the first reflector 121. This action can adjust the optical path length of the light, thereby achieving the effect of adjusting the optical path. Compared with the existing manual driving of the second reflector, this application can adjust the position of the second reflector 122 more quickly and accurately through the setting of the driver 123, improving the adjustment accuracy and adjustment efficiency.
[0033] Existing adjustment methods can only adjust the distance between the first and second reflectors, and cannot compensate for the effects of environmental vibration, cooling medium vibration, external torque, external temperature changes, and installation errors. To address this, the driver 123 of this application can also drive the second reflector 122 to move along the second direction b to further compensate for optical path offset and errors. Simultaneously, the driver 123 can drive the second reflector 122 to rotate, adjusting the angle between its mirror normal and the optical axis of the second laser 112a reflected by the first reflector 121, thereby achieving fine-tuning of the optical path and improving the quality of the sum-frequency laser beam 160.
[0034] The first direction 'a' is perpendicular to the emission direction of the first laser 111a. This setting allows the movement of the second reflector 122 along the first direction 'a' to effectively change the optical path length of the second laser 112a without interfering with the optical path of the first laser 111a. Simultaneously, the first direction 'a' is perpendicular to the second direction 'b'. This mutual perpendicularity ensures that the movement of the second reflector 122 in different directions is independent, avoiding mutual influence and interference between different movement modes. This precise spatial orientation setting provides a clear coordinate reference for the precise control of the second reflector 122 by the driver 123, making the entire optical path adjustment process more stable, accurate, and controllable, and better adaptable to complex and changing working environments and optical path adjustment requirements.
[0035] The frequency-switching section 130 is used to achieve frequency-switching of multi-wavelength lasers. Its main function is to mix the first laser 111a and the second laser 112a, which are transmitted from different optical paths. In the frequency-switching section 130, according to the principle of nonlinear optics, the two laser beams interact to generate a laser of a new frequency, namely the frequency-switched laser 160. The generation efficiency and quality of the frequency-switched laser 160 directly depend on the spatiotemporal synchronization of the first laser 111a and the second laser 112a when they enter the frequency-switching section 130, that is, whether the optical path difference between them is appropriate. The frequency-switching section 130 outputs the generated frequency-switched laser 160 and transmits it to the detector 140.
[0036] As shown in Figure 1, a signal connection is established between detector 140 and driver 123, forming a closed-loop feedback adjustment system. The function of detector 140 is to receive and analyze the sum-frequency laser 160 output from sum-frequency unit 130, and generate corresponding feedback signals based on the parameter characteristics of the sum-frequency laser 160. These feedback signals contain current optical path adjustment parameter information, enabling the determination of whether the sum-frequency process has reached its optimal state. After receiving the feedback signals from detector 140, driver 123 processes and analyzes the signals, and then drives the second reflector 122 to perform corresponding movements according to a preset algorithm and control strategy, further adjusting the optical path and compensating for optical path deviations and errors. Through the combination of these various movement modes, driver 123 can precisely control the second reflector 122 according to actual needs, thereby achieving precise adjustment of the optical path and ensuring that the sum-frequency process is always in its optimal state. Optionally, detector 140 can be any one of wavefront detector 140, CCD camera, or interferometer.
[0037] It should be noted that, in one possible embodiment of this application, firstly, as shown in FIG1 and FIG2, the laser unit 110 includes a first laser 111 and a second laser 112, wherein the first laser 111 is used to emit a first laser 111a; and the second laser 112 is used to emit a second laser 112a.
[0038] In the field of multi-wavelength pulse and frequency technology, the interaction of lasers of different wavelengths is required to achieve the frequency effect, thus necessitating multiple independent laser generating units. In this embodiment, the laser unit 110 is divided into a first laser 111 and a second laser 112, which together constitute the hardware foundation of the laser unit 110.
[0039] This split design not only ensures the output stability of each laser, but also facilitates the flexible selection and configuration of lasers with different parameters according to actual application needs, thereby adapting to diverse sum-frequency scenarios. Compared with a single laser integrating multiple functions, it has higher flexibility and scalability.
[0040] Second, as shown in Figures 1 and 2, the optical path compensation adjustment system 100 also includes a processing platform 150, which is located between the detector 140 and the frequency summing section 130; the frequency summing laser 160 is emitted sequentially from the frequency summing section 130 to the processing platform 150 and the detector 140.
[0041] In the field of ultrafast laser processing, the sum-frequency laser 160 is often used for tasks such as material cutting and surface micromachining. Placing the processing platform 150 in this position ensures that the sum-frequency laser 160 can act on the processing object after completing the sum-frequency process. At the same time, it also ensures that the detector 140 can receive the remaining laser signal in a timely manner after the laser completes the processing task, for feedback adjustment, forming a complete working link of sum-frequency, processing, and detection. This enables the system to not only achieve accurate optical path compensation, but also to efficiently complete actual processing operations, improving the system's practicality and integration.
[0042] After being emitted from the sum-frequency unit 130, the sum-frequency laser 160 directly irradiates the surface of the material to be processed on the processing platform 150. At this time, the high energy and specific wavelength characteristics of the sum-frequency laser 160 allow it to interact with the material, achieving processing effects such as melting, vaporization, and etching. After the sum-frequency laser 160 completes its processing task, a portion of the laser continues to propagate, eventually reaching the detector 140. The detector 140 captures parameters such as the intensity, wavelength, and phase of this portion of the laser, generates a feedback signal, and transmits it to the driver 123. Based on the feedback signal, the driver 123 adjusts the second reflector 122 in the delay line adjustment unit 120 again to optimize the optical path, ensuring that the processing accuracy and efficiency of the subsequent sum-frequency laser 160 remain at their optimal state, forming a dynamic, self-optimizing closed-loop working system.
[0043] Optionally, in a laser optical system, the reflection of laser light by a conventional mirror surface suffers from a certain degree of energy loss and wavelength-selective reflection. To minimize energy loss during laser reflection and ensure the stability and efficiency of laser transmission, the surfaces of the first mirror 121 and the second mirror 122 are also coated with a high-reflectivity film. The high-reflectivity film matches the wavelength of the second laser 112a, reducing absorption and scattering losses during reflection.
[0044] The aforementioned optical path compensation adjustment system 100 monitors the sum-frequency effect in real time through the detector 140, drives the delay line adjustment unit 120 to dynamically compensate for changes in optical path, replaces manual calibration, and improves efficiency and stability; at the same time, combined with the translation, rotation, and lateral movement of the reflector, it improves the adjustment accuracy.
[0045] As shown in Figure 2, for example, the delay line adjustment unit 120 further includes a third reflector 124 and a fourth reflector 125 disposed along the optical path. The third reflector 124 and the second reflector 122 are disposed along a second direction b; the fourth reflector 125 and the third reflector 124 are disposed along a first direction a and the second reflector 122 is disposed along the second direction b; the second laser 112a is incident on the frequency-switching unit 130 after being reflected sequentially by the first reflector 121, the second reflector 122, the third reflector 124, and the fourth reflector 125; the driver 123 drives the second reflector 124 according to the feedback signal. 2 and the third reflector 124 move along the first direction a to approach or move away from the first reflector 121, and / or drive the second reflector 122 and the third reflector 124 to rotate to adjust the angle between the mirror normal of the second reflector 122 and the optical axis of the second laser 112a reflected by the first reflector 121 and the angle between the mirror normal of the third reflector 124 and the optical axis of the second laser 112a reflected by the second reflector 122, and / or drive the second reflector 122 and the third reflector 124 to move relative to the first reflector 121 and the fourth reflector 125 along the second direction b.
[0046] Specifically, the number of reflectors can be increased or decreased according to the specific requirements of optical path adjustment. In another embodiment of this application, as shown in FIG2, the delay line adjustment unit 120 further includes a third reflector 124 and a fourth reflector 125 disposed along the optical path.
[0047] As shown in Figure 2, the second laser 112a is reflected by the first reflector 121 to the second reflector 122, and then by the second reflector 122 to the third reflector 124. At this time, the light path of the second laser 112a reflected from the first reflector 121 to the second reflector 122 is perpendicular to the light path reflected from the second reflector 122 to the third reflector 124. The second laser 112a is then reflected by the third reflector 124 to the fourth reflector 125. At this time, the light path of the second laser 112a reflected from the third reflector 124 to the fourth reflector 125 is parallel to the light path reflected from the first reflector 121 to the second reflector 122. After being reflected by the fourth reflector 125, the light path exits and is parallel to the light path of the first laser 111a.
[0048] The driver 123 can drive the second reflector 122 and the third reflector 124 to move along the first direction a, directly adjusting the optical path length of the second laser 112a. For example, when the detector 140 detects a decrease in sum-frequency efficiency and determines that the optical path difference is insufficient, the driver 123 can control the second reflector 122 and the third reflector 124 to move away from the first reflector 121 along the first direction a, extending the optical path and increasing the optical path difference. Furthermore, the driver 123 can independently control the rotation angle of the second reflector 122 and the third reflector 124, respectively adjusting the angle between their mirror normal and the corresponding incident laser optical axis to achieve minor offset correction of the optical path. The driver 123 can also drive the second reflector 122 and the third reflector 124 to move laterally relative to the first reflector 121 and the fourth reflector 125 along the second direction b to compensate for the effects of optical path offset caused by reflector installation errors, environmental vibration, cooling medium vibration, external torque, and external temperature changes.
[0049] It should be noted that this application does not impose any limitation on the specific number of reflectors. In addition to the four reflectors mentioned above, the number of reflectors may also be six, eight, etc.
[0050] In one possible embodiment of this application, as shown in FIG3, the delay line adjustment part 120 includes a sliding groove 126 disposed along a first direction a and a slider 127 disposed in the sliding groove 126; the second reflector 122 is rotatably and adjustablely disposed on the slider 127; the driver 123 is drivenly connected to the slider 127 and is used to drive the slider 127 to move the second reflector 122 along the sliding groove 126 to move closer to or away from the first reflector 121.
[0051] Specifically, as shown in Figure 3, the sliding groove 126 is set along the first direction a, providing a precise guide track for the movement of the slider 127. This linear track design effectively restricts the degree of freedom of the slider 127 in non-adjustment directions, avoiding optical path instability caused by excessive shaking. The slider 127 is installed in the groove, closely matching its shape and size. The material of the slider 127 is usually selected with high strength and low coefficient of friction to ensure that it can withstand the driving force of the driver 123 and maintain a smooth movement during long-term, high-frequency sliding, reducing the impact of wear on adjustment accuracy.
[0052] A second reflector 122 is provided on the slider 127. The second reflector 122 is adjustable and is provided on the slider 127 to adjust the angle between the normal of the mirror surface of the second reflector 122 and the optical axis of the second laser 112a reflected by the first reflector 121. Optionally, when the delay line adjustment part 120 also includes a third reflector 124 and a fourth reflector 125, the third reflector 124 can also be rotatably provided on the slider 127 to adjust the angle between the normal of the mirror surface of the third reflector 124 and the optical axis of the second laser 112a reflected by the second reflector 122.
[0053] When the detector 140 detects that the intensity or phase of the sum-frequency laser 160 deviates from the set value, the system will calculate the required optical path adjustment amount based on the feedback signal. The driver 123 will then drive the slider 127 to move the second reflector 122 along the sliding groove 126 toward the direction closer to or away from the first reflector 121.
[0054] For example, as shown in Figure 4, the slider 127 includes a sliding frame 1271 and a support plate 1272. A sliding rod 1273 is inserted through the sliding frame 1271 along the second direction b. The support plate 1272 is sleeved on the outside of the sliding rod 1273 and slides along the second direction b through the sliding rod 1273.
[0055] Specifically, as shown in Figure 4, the sliding frame 1271 is the basic frame of the slider 127. Its main function is to cooperate with the external sliding groove 126 to guide the entire slider 127 to slide along the first direction a. The support plate 1272 is the platform that directly supports the second reflector 122. It has good flatness and stability to ensure that the second reflector 122 can be accurately adjusted in angle and position after installation.
[0056] As shown in Figure 4, a slide rod 1273 is installed inside the sliding frame 1271 along the second direction b. The slide rod 1273 can be fixed to the sliding frame 1271 by means of locating pins, screws, or interference fits to ensure that it will not shift or loosen during use. The slide rod 1273 provides a guide track for the sliding of the support plate 1272 in the second direction b, and its straightness and surface finish directly affect the smoothness of the sliding and the adjustment accuracy of the support plate 1272. By setting the slide rod 1273 inside the sliding frame 1271, the internal space of the slider 127 is utilized, and the adjustment function of the second reflector 122 in the second direction b is realized without increasing the overall structural complexity.
[0057] The support plate 1272 is fitted onto the outside of the slide rod 1273 through internally machined through holes or bearing structures, forming a sliding pair similar to a linear guide. This design allows the support plate 1272 to slide freely along the slide rod 1273 in the second direction b, while restricting its movement in other directions, ensuring the singularity and controllability of the motion, and further improving the smoothness and accuracy of the sliding.
[0058] Optionally, as shown in FIG3, the sliding groove 126 has a guide plate 128 arranged in the first direction a, the slider 127 is disposed on the guide plate 128, and the driver 123 can drive the slider 127 to slide along the guide plate 128.
[0059] Specifically, as shown in Figure 3, the guide plate 128 is arranged along the first direction a and is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the sliding groove 126 through precision machining and assembly processes, such as bolt fixing, screw fixing, and pin fixing. The arrangement of the guide plate 128 ensures that the slider 127 always moves along a preset straight trajectory during the movement, avoiding the problem of optical path instability caused by shaking or deviation, providing physical constraints for the precise movement of the slider 127, and effectively reducing the influence of external interference on the movement trajectory of the slider 127.
[0060] In one possible embodiment of this application, as shown in FIG3, the delay line adjustment part 120 further includes a fine-tuning part 129; the side wall of the sliding groove 126 has a through groove 1261 extending along the first direction a, and the fine-tuning part 129 passes through the through groove 1261 and is fixedly connected to the side wall of the slider 127; by sliding the fine-tuning part 129 along the through groove 1261, the slider 127 can be driven to slide along the sliding frame 1271.
[0061] Specifically, as shown in Figure 3, the fine-tuning part 129 is rod-shaped or block-shaped. One end passes through the through groove 1261 and is firmly fixed to the side wall of the slider 127 by screws, pins, or welding. The other end is exposed outside the sliding groove 126, which facilitates the application of adjustment force or connection to the drive device. This connection method allows the movement of the fine-tuning part 129 to be directly transmitted to the slider 127. When the fine-tuning part 129 moves in the through groove 1261, the slider 127 moves synchronously with it, thereby driving the second reflector 122 mounted on the slider 127 to adjust its position, thereby achieving fine-tuning of the optical path length of the second laser 112a.
