Embodiment
The present invention will be further described below in conjunction with accompanying drawing.
As shown in Figure 1, in one embodiment of the invention, the invention provides a kind of monochromatic light grid and lead to the pulse stretcher device more, it comprises: optical isolator element, be used for importing and the derivation of incident light and emergent light, and wherein incident light is horizontal polarization light; Four-way single optical grating expending unit is used for the broadening to laser pulse; Logical numerical control unit processed is used for the control to the laser pulse stretching multiple.
As shown in Figure 2, the optical isolator element among the present invention comprises film polaroid A 1, Faraday polarization apparatus 2 and half-wave plate A3, and wherein film polaroid A 1, Faraday polarization apparatus 2 and half-wave plate A3 set gradually along the incident light incident direction.At first incident light is first by film polaroid A 1, then by Faraday polarization apparatus 2, this moment, the polarization direction of incident light was rotated in the forward 45 °, again by half-wave plate A3, then 45 ° of the reverse rotations of the polarization direction of incident light, so incident light keeps horizontal polarization direction to continue incident.Because the optical direction of half-wave plate A1 is relevant with incident direction, and the optical direction of Faraday polarization apparatus 2 and incident direction are irrelevant, so the emergent light that penetrates from logical numerical control unit processed is by behind the half-wave plate A3, the polarization direction of emergent light is rotated in the forward 45 °, again by behind the Faraday polarization apparatus 2, the outgoing polarisation of light oppositely is rotated in the forward 45 ° again, and this moment, emergent light became orthogonal polarized light, is exporting through film polaroid A 1 back reflection.
In a preferred embodiment of the invention, the optoisolator unit also comprises film polaroid C12, and film polaroid C12 is used for the reflection emergent light, can make like this incident direction of emergent light and incident light parallel.
As shown in Figure 3, four-way single optical grating expending unit among the present invention comprises successively by plane total reflective mirror A9, grating 7, plane total reflective mirror B10,45 ° of total reflective mirrors 6 and concave mirror 8 consist of, incident light is by after leading to numerical control unit processed, after 6 reflections of 45 ° of total reflective mirrors, be incident to for the first time grating 7 to be slightly larger than Littrow angle, be diffracted into concave mirror 8 through grating 7, reflex to plane total reflective mirror A9 through concave mirror 8, total reflective mirror A9 is reflected back concave mirror 8 through the plane, reflex to for the second time grating 7 through concave mirror 8, be diffracted into plane total reflective mirror B10 through grating 7, through plane total reflective mirror B10 reflection, be reflected back into logical numerical control unit processed along original optical path.
In a preferred embodiment of the invention, the delineation line direction of grating 7 and horizontal polarization polarisation of light perpendicular direction, this moment is very high to the efficient of horizontal polarization optical diffraction, generally can reach more than 95%.
Shown in Figure 4 and 5, logical numerical control unit processed among the present invention is made of logical number controller, film polaroid B4 and plane total reflective mirror C11, logical number controller and film polaroid B4 set gradually along described polarized light incident direction, wherein logical number controller can be Pockers cell 5, and described plane total reflective mirror C11 is used for the laser pulse of film polaroid B4 reflection is reflected back along original optical path.
When Pockers cell 5 not during making alive, after the horizontal polarization light of incident passes through first Pockers cell 5, keep the horizontal polarization attitude to enter four-way monochromatic light grid pulse stretcher device, light behind the broadening still is horizontal polarization light, return logical numerical control unit processed along former road, and keep the horizontal polarization attitude by logical numerical control unit processed.
When Pockers cell 5 adds half-wave voltage, the horizontal polarization light of incident is by behind the Pockers cell 5, the polarization state half-twist, become vertical polarization by horizontal polarization, after entering four-way monochromatic light grid pulse stretcher unit, because 7 pairs of vertical polarization light diffraction efficiencies of grating are extremely low, after laser pulse passes through grating 8 diffraction four times, can think without back light, and when logical number controller is returned in the pulse that Pockers cell 5 pressurization advances into four-way monochromatic light grid pulse stretcher device, because Pockers cell 5 has added half-wave voltage, by its polarization state half-twist behind the Pockers cell 5, become the vertical polarization attitude by the horizontal polarization attitude, reflex to plane total reflective mirror C11 at film polaroid B4 place, after plane total reflective mirror C11 reflection, former road is returned and is again passed through again half-twist of Pockers cell 5 rear polarizer attitudes, revert to the horizontal polarization attitude and enter four-way monochromatic light grid pulse stretcher unit, so by control Pockers cell pressing time, can control the number of times that enters four-way monochromatic light grid pulse stretcher device, and then realize that eight is logical, 16 is logical, 30 two-ways etc. pulse stretcher.
Certainly, adopt above-mentioned optimal technical scheme just for the ease of understanding to illustrating that the present invention carries out, the present invention also can have other embodiment, protection scope of the present invention is not limited to this.In the situation that does not deviate from spirit of the present invention and essence thereof, the person of ordinary skill in the field works as can make according to the present invention various corresponding changes and distortion, but these corresponding changes and distortion all should belong to the protection domain of claim of the present invention.
