The invention discloses a far-field
signal-to-
noise ratio measuring device and method for ultra-strong and ultra-short
laser pulses, and belongs to the technical field of
laser measurement. After ultra-short pulses to be measured pass through a
beam splitter, a light path of
signal light to be measured is adjusted by using a first reflector and a second reflector, and the moment when the
signal light to be measured reaches a focus position is adjusted by using a
delay line; the other path of reference light is subjected to frequency doubling by using a frequency doubling
crystal and then is subjected to light splitting by using a dichroscope, the
fundamental frequency light as the reference light is adjusted and delayed by a
delay line and then reaches the same
focal position as the
signal light, interference occurs at the
focal position, and gas is ionized to form a
plasma grating; the frequency doubling light irradiates the
plasma grating,
diffraction light signals of the probe light under different time
delay conditions are
read through a CCD, and then signal-to-
noise ratio data of the pulse to be measured are obtained through measurement; according to the invention, signal-to-
noise ratio data of ultra-short and ultra-strong
laser pulses at a far-field position is realized for the first time, and the device has the characteristics of simple
optical path, convenient adjustment and accurate pre-
pulse measurement for a small laser device.
