Description

Technical Field

Background
The principle of the laser marking machine is that laser generated by a laser enters a laser marking head through a set of optical system of a machine body, the laser marking head guides laser beams to pass through a focusing mirror to be converged into a light spot with high energy density, then the light spot interacts with a sample, and various characters, symbols, patterns and bar codes are marked on the surface of the light spot to manufacture permanent marks, trademarks, artworks and the like. Before marking, the plane to be marked of the sample is required to be placed on the focal plane of a focusing mirror of a laser marking machine, so that the marked graph is clear, and the optimal marking effect is obtained, so that the position of the sample for searching the focal plane is required to be moved, and the process is generally called focusing or focusing.
The existing fixed focus mode mainly comprises the following three modes. The first method is to manually adjust, firstly, a metal sheet is placed on the surface of a sample, the lifting upright post is adjusted through a mechanical hand wheel while marking, the distance between the field lens and the sample is changed to find a focus, and the position with the loudest sound and the best marking effect is the marking focus. The adjustment mode is time-consuming and labor-consuming, has poor adjustment precision and inconvenient adjustment, is easy to cause defocusing of equipment, and more importantly, the manual adjustment level is different from person to person, so that the marking quality is difficult to keep consistent. The second method is to obtain three-dimensional information of the object to be marked in advance, and adjust the focal length through the three-dimensional information of the object, wherein the adjustment mode can automatically adjust the focal length, but has limitations, on one hand, the focusing mode cannot be realized under the condition that the three-dimensional information of the object to be marked is unclear; on the other hand, this method is complicated in process and not efficient. The third method adopts a visible light source or ultrasonic waves to indicate the laser focus position so as to realize focusing, and the method can only determine the initial position of marking and can not focus in real time in the marking process, so that the adjustment precision is still not high enough for a sample with an unstable marking structure, and the marking quality and the production efficiency can be influenced.

In OCT systems, the longitudinal resolution of the OCT system is equivalent to the coherence length of the light source:
wherein lambda is 0 Is the center wavelength of the OCT system light source, Δλ is the full width at half maximum of the light source power spectrum. At the central wavelength lambda 0 The larger the bandwidth of the light source, the shorter the coherence length, the higher the longitudinal resolution and the higher the detection accuracy, without change. Therefore, the device adopts a broadband low-coherence light source to realize chromatography, and for the broadband light source with the central wavelength of 830nm and the bandwidth of 20nm, the coherence length of the broadband light source is about 15 mu m, so that the detection precision is improved.
Michelson interferometer interference principle: the light intensity after two beams with the same optical path with the same source interfere is as follows:
I=A 01 γ 2 A 2 cos(2k·Δz) (2)
wherein I is light intensity, A 0 As a direct current signal, gamma 1 For the first beam to reflect at the sample arm optical path system 100, γ 2 The reflection coefficient of the second light beam in the reference arm light path system 300 is that a is the amplitude of the light wave, k is the wave vector, and Δz is the difference between the optical path of the first light beam reaching the sample arm light path system 100 and the optical path of the second light beam reaching the reference arm light path system 300, that is, the optical path difference. The first and second beams are homologous beams.
Since the detection light source 292 is a broadband low coherence light source, two light beams from the sample arm light path system 100 and the reference arm light path system 300 interfere in the fiber coupler 250, so that the light intensity amplitude is:
a=γ 1 γ 2 A 2 (3)
the intensity of the light after the interference of the two light beams is:
wherein a is 0 As a direct current signal, k i For wave vectors corresponding to different wavelengths of the light source, deltaz j A is the optical path difference of the light beam reflected back from the point to be marked at different depths in the sample arm optical path system 100 and the light beam reflected back from the reference arm optical path system 300 j And the light intensity amplitude corresponding to the optical path difference is obtained. It can be seen that the interference signal peak obtained by final detection is only at the optical path difference deltaz j Where=0, then the signal strength decays rapidly to both positive and negative sides.
Let the optical path difference between the reference arm optical path system 300 and the sample arm optical path system 100 be Δz j =L-z j Where L is the optical path, z, of the reference arm optical path system 300 j Is the optical path length of the sample arm optical path system 100. Since the velocity v of the mirror 340 in the reference arm optical path system 300 is fixed, then l=l+vt, where L is the optical path length of the reference arm at time t=0, then equation (4) can be expressed as:
let l+vt-z j =0, get
Along with the uniform movement of the reflecting mirror 340 in the reference arm light path system 300, the optical path information returned from the sample arm light path system 100, which is equal to the optical path of the reference arm light path system 300, sequentially enters the photoelectric detection system.
The photodetector 260 of the present device is a single-point detector, and receives and processes the interference signal from the optical fiber coupler 250 along with the optical path scanning of the optical path system of the reference arm, and converts the interference signal into an electrical signal, and inputs the electrical signal into the high-pass filter 270, where the electrical signal converted from the interference signal can be expressed as:
where η is the quantum efficiency of the photodetector 260, e is the electron charge, hν is the photon energy, η 0 Is the intrinsic impedance of free space E 1 Representing the light field returned from the reference arm light path system 300, E 2 Represents the optical field returned from the sample arm optical path system 100, A 1 Representing the amplitude, a, of the optical field returned from the reference arm optical path system 300 2 Representing the amplitude of the optical field returned from the sample arm optical path system 100, real { } represents the real component operation and conjugate.
The dc component and low frequency noise of the electrical signal are filtered by a high pass filter 270 to become an electrical signal carrying depth information of the point to be marked on the surface of the sample 190:
in order to further reduce noise and improve signal-to-noise ratio, the two voltage signals are subjected to differential amplification by a differential amplification circuit, and then high-frequency noise is filtered by a high-pass filter 270, so that the waveform is smoothed. The resulting voltage signal is transmitted to the computer processing terminal 280 via the data acquisition card.
The computer processing terminal 280 performs hilbert transform on the received signal to obtain:
further obtain the analysis signal of the interference signal
Q(t)=Γ(t)+iΓ′(t) (9)
And (5) calculating the amplitude information of the analysis signal, namely extracting the signal envelope. And obtaining signal intensities y (z) corresponding to different depth positions z, wherein an abscissa z corresponding to a position with the largest signal intensity is the detected depth position of the point to be marked, as shown in fig. 3, the abscissa depth position corresponding to a signal intensity peak value of a curve y1 and y1 representing the signal intensity in the figure is z1, and z1=600 μm.
Initializing the setting:
prior to the marking process, the device is first initially set up and the sample 190 is placed on the stage 170. The second motor module 350 is adjusted to the middle of the screw, that is, the mirror 340 can move back and forth along the screw, so that the optical path length of the reference arm optical path system 300 can be increased or decreased by 10mm. The first motor module may drive the stage 170 to move longitudinally to adjust the height of the sample 190. The distance between the focal plane and the flat field focusing lens 150 is calculated by the parameters of the flat field focusing lens 150.
A test mirror 340 is placed on stage 170 to determine the depth position of the focal plane. The detection light source 292 emits a light beam, and splits the light beam according to the detection process to obtain a first light beam and a second light beam, so that the first light beam reflects with the test mirror 340, the second light beam has an optical path reference signal, after an interference signal is generated, an interference signal peak representing a focal plane position can be detected to obtain an analysis signal of the interference signal according to the above working principle, and a signal envelope is extracted according to amplitude information of the analysis signal, so as to obtain a signal intensity curve y0. Referring to fig. 3, the abscissa corresponding to the signal intensity peak value corresponding to the signal intensity curve y0 is the depth position corresponding to the focal plane, and z0=200 μm is obtained as the target position for the subsequent focusing. The left side of the stage 170 is provided with a scale 160, and the zero graduation line of the scale 160 is placed on the same horizontal plane as the focal plane according to the depth position corresponding to the obtained focal plane.
The depth range of the point to be marked on the sample 190 that can be detected by the device is from 10mm above the focal plane to 10mm below the focal plane. If the depth position of the point to be marked of the sample 190 cannot be detected, a motor driver is manually operated to control the first motor module to move and adjust the height of the sample 190, and the height is placed in the scale range of the scale 160.
The marking working process of the invention comprises the following steps:
referring to fig. 3, the depth position of the point to be marked of the sample 190 is detected, and the abscissa depth position corresponding to the signal intensity peak of the curve y1, y1 representing the signal intensity is z1, where z1=600 μm. When the depth position of the spot to be marked on the sample 190 is greater than the depth position of the focal plane, the direction is positive, i.e., the first motor module moves upward, and vice versa. The depth position corresponding to the focal plane is z0=200 μm, and the result is positive, namely the direction is positive, from z1-z0=600 μm-200 μm=400 μm. Further, the computer processing terminal 280 converts the calculated data to obtain the working voltage of the first motor module, the computer processing terminal 280 outputs a level signal to the first motor module, and the first motor module drives the objective table 170 to move upwards by 400 μm, so that the point to be marked of the sample 190 moves to the focal plane for focusing. If the calculation result is negative, the direction is negative, and the first motor module drives the stage 170 to move downward. After the movement is completed, the signal intensity curve y1 of the point to be marked is basically overlapped with the signal intensity curve y0 of the focal plane, and the peak value reaches the highest value.
The accuracy of the first motor module is 100 μm,100 μm is an allowable error range, and as long as the longitudinal relative distance between the position of the point to be marked and the target position is within 100 μm, it can be judged that the focus is completed.
The marking light source 110 in the sample arm light path system 100 emits laser beams, the laser beams enter the two-dimensional vibrating mirror group 130 after being collimated and parallel by the first collimating lens 120, and reflected light is focused on a sample 190 to be marked by the flat field focusing lens 150 after being reflected by the x-scanning vibrating mirror 132 and the y-scanning vibrating mirror 131 in the two-dimensional vibrating mirror group 130, so that marking is performed.
In the marking process, whether the point to be marked on the sample 190 deviates from the target position or not is detected in real time by collecting interference signals, and if the point to be marked is not completely focused, the point to be marked is refocused, and if the point to be marked is not completely focused, the first motor module drives the objective table 170 to longitudinally move, so that the focal plane is tracked in real time.
The marking of one sample 190 is completed, and if it is desired to continue to mark the next sample 190, the above-described actions are repeated, and if not, the device is turned off.
The invention is based on the interference principle and the optical coherence tomography technology, extracts the depth position of the point to be marked on the sample 190, monitors focusing in real time, drives the objective table 170 to move longitudinally, tracks the focal plane for marking, has simple device light path, lower energy consumption, high automation degree and higher accuracy, and effectively improves the production efficiency and the production quality of laser marking.
As an optimization, the detection light path system 200 further includes a beam splitter 230 and an optical power meter 240, where the beam splitter 230 transmits and reflects the outgoing light after the second collimating lens 220 is parallel at an incident angle of 45 °, and a part of the outgoing light is transmitted to the half mirror 140, and another part of the outgoing light is reflected to the optical power meter 240.
