Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of focal length measurement, and in particular to a lens focusing measurement device. Background Technology
[0002] In high-precision lens focal length measurement, a laser light source combined with a separate photodetector is typically used. To eliminate the influence of cross terms in the Gaussian mode, half of the PSD sensor needs to receive the light source, which poses a significant challenge to the system design. For example, the lens focal length measuring device described in CN109186961A uses a rotating baffle and a semi-transparent, semi-reflective mirror as its structure. While this theoretically achieves the design objective and provides a good approach for focusing measurement device design, the semi-transparent, semi-reflective mirror has a high manufacturing cost, and the rotating baffle and semi-transparent, semi-reflective mirror require high installation precision; without corresponding adjustment mechanisms, it is difficult to achieve the design objective.

[0031] Working Principle: The incident laser light is emitted through the fiber optic interface, becomes parallel light through the collimating lens, and is reflected by the faceted mirror. Half of the light is reflected into the lens under test, then reflected again by the plane mirror behind the lens, and finally strikes the PSD sensor after passing through both the lens and the collimating lens. After receiving the information, the PSD sensor adjusts the incident light position, causing a change in the resistance between its two electrodes, resulting in different output currents. Therefore, by measuring the magnitude and ratio of the output currents at the two electrodes, the focal length of the lens under test can be accurately determined. However, because a laser light source is used, when the PSD sensor is very small, Gaussian modes may couple. The cross-terms of these Gaussian modes can significantly affect PSD acquisition. To eliminate this effect, half of the PSD sensor's plane needs to receive the light source.
