Background
The auto-focusing technique is an important technique applied to an imaging optical system and an optical processing system. In both the imaging optical system and the optical machining system, it is necessary to accurately position the focal point of the objective lens on the imaging surface or the machining surface of the object before imaging or machining the object. The application of autofocus techniques in optical imaging systems or optical processing systems can well meet this requirement.
The current automatic focusing technologies include confocal intensity detection, imaging passive detection, astigmatism, spot displacement detection, moire fringe method, and the like. The hardware of the confocal intensity detection method is simple to implement, but detection signals are easily affected by stray light, feedback signals are nonlinear, and the adjustment difficulty is high. The imaging passive detection method and the astigmatic method both generate feedback signals according to the shape change of a feedback graph, and have lower feedback precision and smaller focusing depth. The spot displacement detection method is limited by factors such as diffraction limit, detector position resolution and the like, and the focusing precision cannot be further improved. The moire fringe method has high focusing precision, but is limited by factors such as processing precision of the grating, flexible selectivity of the grating period and the like, and is difficult to further improve, and the focusing depth is small. In addition, various devices designed according to the above techniques often have only an auto-focusing function and no auto-leveling function. In the optical machining system and the partial scanning optical imaging system, however, the requirement for the levelness of the machining object or the imaging object is relatively high. The application of the focusing device without the automatic leveling function in the above system is greatly limited.
Therefore, an automatic focusing device with an automatic leveling function is needed to be designed aiming at the limitation of the existing automatic focusing technology, the application field of the automatic focusing technology is expanded, and the technology is applied to a wider optical-mechanical system.

The invention generates focusing light beams by a laser light source. The focusing light beam is controlled by the scanning system and sequentially focused on the back focal plane of the objective lens to form four focusing light spots. The four focusing light beams are reflected by the focusing plane, returned by the original light path, reflected by the beam splitter, sequentially subjected to light intensity detection by the differential confocal detection mechanism, defocused amount is obtained according to the measurement signal, a feedback signal is generated, and automatic leveling and automatic focusing of the sample are realized.
As shown in fig. 1, wherein a module 1 represents an auxiliary structure of an optical system used in conjunction with the automatic focusing apparatus of the present invention, a working light beam is generated for realizing an optical function of the optical system itself. The present embodiment provides a scanning type auto-focusing device with auto-leveling function, which includes: the device comprises a laser light source 2, a first beam splitter 3, a dichroic mirror 4, a first vibrating mirror 5, a first concave mirror 6, a second concave mirror 7, a second vibrating mirror 8, a scanning lens 9, a field lens 10, an objective lens 11, a sample holder 12, a piezoelectric platform 13, a second beam splitter 14, a first convex lens 15, a first small hole 16, a first photoelectric detector 17, a second convex lens 18, a second small hole 19 and a second photoelectric detector 20.
The method for realizing the automatic leveling and automatic focusing of the focusing plane by adopting the device shown in FIG. 1 is as follows:
the laser source 2 emits a focusing light beam, which is transmitted by the first beam splitter 3 and reflected by the dichroic mirror 4 to be combined with the working light beam of the optical system. The wavelength of the focusing light beam is different from that of the optical system working light beam, and the dichroic mirror 4 reflects the focusing light beam and transmits the optical system working light beam.
The focused light beam reflected by the dichroic mirror 4 is reflected by the first galvanometer 5, the first concave mirror 6, the second concave mirror 7 and the second galvanometer 8 in sequence, and then is focused on the back focal plane of the scanning lens 9. The first galvanometer 5 and the second galvanometer 8 have rotation axes which are perpendicular to each other, so that the focusing light beam has two scanning dimensions. The first concave mirror 6 and the second concave mirror 7 are arranged in a confocal mode to form a 4f system, and the rotating shafts of the first vibrating mirror 5 and the second vibrating mirror 8 are imaged on the same plane. The first galvanometer 5 and the second galvanometer 8 control focusing light beams, the incident angles of the focusing light beams are changed for four times, four focusing light spots are sequentially generated on the back focal plane of the scanning lens 9, and the four light spots are distributed in a diamond shape.
The scanning lens 9 and the field lens 10, the field lens 10 and the objective lens 11 are respectively disposed in a confocal manner, the field lens 10 and the objective lens 11 image the four focusing light spots on the back focal plane of the scanning lens 9 on the back focal plane of the objective lens 11, and the four focusing light spots are generated on the focusing plane through the reflection of the focusing plane and are distributed as shown in fig. 2.
The subject of focusing is placed on the sample holder 12, and the sample holder 12 is connected to the piezoelectric stage 13. The piezoelectric platform 13 has at least three adjustment dimensions, including x-direction rotation adjustment and y-direction rotation adjustment, and is used for automatic leveling; and the z direction is horizontally adjusted for automatic focusing.
The objective lens focused light beam is reflected by the focusing plane of the focusing object and returns to the first beam splitter 3 along the original optical path. The focused light beam is reflected by the first beam splitter 3 and then enters a differential confocal detection mechanism consisting of a second beam splitter 14, a first convex lens 15, a first small hole 16, a first photoelectric detector 17, a second convex lens 18, a second small hole 19 and a second photoelectric detector 20. After the focused light beam is split by the second beam splitter 14 with equal energy, the reflected light beam is focused by the first convex lens 15, passes through the first small hole 16 and enters the first photoelectric detector 17; the transmitted beam is focused by the second convex lens 18, passes through the second aperture 19, and is incident on the second photodetector 20. The first convex lens 15 and the second convex lens 18 have the same focal length, and the first aperture 16 and the second aperture 19 have the same aperture. The first aperture 16 is placed behind the back focal plane of the first convex lens 15 and the second aperture 19 is placed in front of the back focal plane of the second convex lens 18. A first photodetector 17 is positioned proximate the first aperture 16 and a second photodetector 20 is positioned proximate the second aperture 19.
When the back focal plane of the objective lens coincides with the focal plane, the distance from the first aperture 16 to the back focal plane of the first convex lens 15 is equal to the distance from the second aperture 19 to the back focal plane of the second convex lens 18. I.e. the clear aperture limits of the light beam are the same for the first aperture 16 and the second aperture 19. The first photodetector 17 and the second photodetector 20 receive the same light intensity, and the light intensities are subtracted by a difference value of 0. When negative defocusing occurs, namely when the focusing spot of the objective lens is on the side of the focusing plane far away from the objective lens, the focusing image point of the first convex lens 15 and the focusing image point of the second convex lens 18 move along the negative direction of the optical axis, the light flux of the first photoelectric detector 17 is reduced, the light flux of the second photoelectric detector 19 is unchanged, the two light intensities are subtracted, and the difference is a negative value. When positive defocusing occurs, namely when the focusing spot of the objective lens is on the side of the focusing plane close to the objective lens, the focusing image point of the first convex lens 15 and the focusing image point of the second convex lens 18 move along the positive direction of the optical axis, the light flux of the first photoelectric detector 17 is unchanged, the light flux of the second photoelectric detector 19 is reduced, the light intensities are subtracted, and the difference value is a positive value. The light intensity difference value in the adjustable range of the focal plane is in direct proportion to the defocusing amount of the corresponding focus.
The first galvanometer 5 and the second galvanometer 8 control the incident direction of the focusing light beam to change, four focusing light spots are sequentially generated, the differential confocal detection mechanism also performs corresponding four-time measurement, corresponding feedback signals are generated according to the light intensity detection difference quantity of four times, the piezoelectric platform 13 is controlled to rotate or move in a translation mode, and automatic leveling and automatic focusing are achieved.
The above description is only exemplary of the preferred embodiments of the present invention, and is not intended to limit the present invention, and any modifications, equivalents, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
