When the vortex band has inclined wave front phase, the vortex band propagates along the positive direction of the z-axis, and the complex amplitude E of the electric field 2 Shorthand on the z=0 plane is shown in fig. 2:

When E is 1 And E is connected with 2 Two light beamsWhen interference occurs at the observation plane with z=0, the interference superposition light intensity I of the two is shown in formula 3:

(10)
when the propagation medium of the light beam is air, the refractive index n=1, and since the deflection angle α is very small and is much smaller than 1 °, sin α≡α, the fringe spacing of the generated interference fringes is as shown in formula 11:
Δs=λ/2α=λ/θ (11)
similarly, when the plane mirror to be measured deflects around the y axis, the deflection angle is β, and because of its structural symmetry, the stripe pitch is shown in formula 12:
Δs=λ/2β=λ/θ (12)

The angle phi between the bifurcation direction and the x-axis direction of the interference fringe is shown in formula 13 by combining formula 3:
φ=π/2-γ (13)
when the bifurcation direction changes according to the rule of clockwise rotation, a certain relation is formed between the bifurcation direction and the azimuth angle, when gamma=0.25pi, the bifurcation condition of the interference bar is that the included angle phi=0.25pi between the bifurcation direction and the positive direction of the x axis at the moment, and the bifurcation condition of the interference bar is shown in fig. 9, so that vortex light and plane wave are interfered to generate a central area with a bifurcation structure, and other edge areas are equidistant interference fringes.

And (3) performing image processing on the interference fringe pattern received by the CCD camera to obtain fringe spacing and a fork direction, and obtaining the angle and the inclination direction corresponding to the inclination of the plane mirror to be detected. The plane mirror to be measured is a plane mirror with polished two sides, the other side of the plane mirror is used for measuring the angular displacement of the plane mirror by the collimator as a comparison experiment, the method has higher precision for measuring the angular displacement of the plane mirror, and the method can be used as a standard of an optical interferometry method for researching the measurement precision.
By utilizing the characteristics of vortex rotation and plane wave interference, a non-contact optical angular displacement measurement system is designed by combining a Mach-Zehnder interference structure, and the measurement of the angular displacement of an optical element is converted into the measurement of the interference fringe pattern pitch and the fringe bifurcation direction. Because the fringe pattern of the traditional dual plane wave interference does not have bifurcation fringes, when the plane mirror to be detected is inclined to enable the variation of the azimuth angle gamma to be pi, the angle variation of the inclined direction of the interference fringe is pi, at the moment, the specific inclined direction of the interference fringe cannot be judged, and the specific inclined direction of the plane mirror cannot be judged. The method can measure the inclination angle and realize the measurement of the inclination direction at the same time, and has certain advantages. The invention realizes an optical element angular displacement measurement system with strong anti-interference capability and higher resolution.
The Mach-Zehnder interference system is one of the most widely applied optical precise measurement systems, and is mainly characterized in that the inclination angle of one of the plane mirrors of the arm is changed, the plane mirrors of the two-arm light path generate relative inclination angles, the angle change of the plane mirrors causes the two light beams to have optical path difference, interference fringes generated when the two light beams meet again can change, and the change of the interference fringes can reflect the information such as the change of the inclination angle, the inclination direction and the like. The conventional laser source is used, a large amount of miscellaneous patterns exist in the generated interference fringes, the focusing on the measured surface is not accurate enough, and the problem of phase jump blurring is further generated. The fringe pattern with alternately bright and dark generated by interference is greatly interfered by external noise, and the stability is poor. In the invention, a frequency stabilization He-Ne laser (lambda=632.8nm) is applied, an optical interference system is built based on a Mach-Zehnder interference structure, off-axis interference occurs when light beams reflected by two plane mirrors meet again, a strip-shaped interference pattern with a bifurcation structure in the middle and equidistant distribution around is generated, when one plane mirror generates small angular displacement, the optical path difference between the two reflected light beams changes, the interference pattern also changes correspondingly, and the interference pattern contains the related information such as the change of the inclination angle of the plane mirror, the direction and the like. The CCD camera is used for respectively collecting interference patterns of the plane mirror at different positions, and the fringe spacing can be obtained by further image processing and calculation of the interference patterns, so that the angular displacement of the plane mirror is obtained. When the inclination direction of the plane mirror changes, the specific inclination direction of the plane mirror can be judged by utilizing the fork opening direction of the interference pattern. According to the method, the measurement of the angular displacement of the plane mirror to be measured is converted into the problem of fringe variation in the interference pattern, and the information such as the magnitude and the direction of the inclination angle variation of the plane mirror is obtained by analyzing the magnitude of the fringe spacing and the direction of the fork. The plane mirror is selected as a plane mirror with double-sided polishing, the other side is measured by a collimator with higher precision, and then the results of the two measurement inclinations are compared, so that the precision of the optical interferometry method can be evaluated.

in the formula, h m And h m+1 Respectively representing the thickness corresponding to m and m+1 level interference fringes; the difference in thickness between adjacent bright and dark fringes is the same, and the spacing deltas between two adjacent bright (dark) fringes is shown in equation 10:
Δs=Δh/sinα=λ/(2nsinα) (10)
when the propagation medium of the light beam is air, the refractive index n=1, and since the deflection angle α is very small and is much smaller than 1 °, sin α≡α, the fringe spacing of the generated interference fringes is as shown in formula 11:
Δs=λ/2α=λ/θ (11)
similarly, when the plane mirror to be measured deflects around the y axis, the deflection angle is β, and because of its structural symmetry, the stripe pitch is shown in formula 12:
Δs=λ/2β=λ/θ (12)
the fringe direction is related to the azimuth angle gamma, which is determined by the deflection of the plane mirror to be measured around the x-axis direction or the y-axis direction. The angle phi between the bifurcation direction and the x-axis direction of the interference fringe is shown in formula 13 by combining formula 3:
φ=π/2-γ (13)
when the bifurcation direction changes according to the rule of clockwise rotation, a certain relation is formed between the bifurcation direction and the azimuth angle, and when gamma=0.25pi, the bifurcation condition of the interference bar is that the included angle phi=0.25pi between the bifurcation direction and the positive direction of the x axis at the moment; the vortex rotation and plane wave interference generate interference fringes with a forked structure in a central area and equidistant other edge areas;
in the interference image, the azimuth angle gamma determines the direction of the branching mouth of the interference fringes, the inclination angle theta determines the fringe spacing of the interference fringes, and the I influences the branching number of the interference fringes of the image;
and (3) performing image processing on the interference fringe pattern received by the CCD camera to obtain fringe spacing and a fork direction, and obtaining the angle and the inclination direction corresponding to the inclination of the plane mirror to be detected.
