Description

Device and method for detecting divergence angle of semiconductor laser
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of semiconductor lasers, in particular to a device for detecting a divergence angle of a semiconductor laser and a control method.
Background
The semiconductor laser has the advantages of wide wavelength range, low cost, light weight, small volume, easy mass production and the like, and is applied to the fields of optical communication, laser radar, laser weapon, medical treatment and the like. However, due to the special waveguide structure of the semiconductor laser, the divergence angle of the output laser beam is larger and the distribution is asymmetric, the divergence angle of the fast axis perpendicular to the junction direction is about 50 degrees, the divergence angle of the slow axis parallel to the junction direction is about 10 degrees, and the semiconductor laser can be applied to practical engineering after the beam shaping in the production process. Therefore, accurately measuring the divergence angle of a semiconductor laser is of great importance for laser production and application.
At present, although mature semiconductor laser far-field divergence angle testing equipment is already available on the market, if CCD is adopted for direct measurement, because the LD chip laser energy is higher, in order to avoid burning CCD caused by CCD saturation, an attenuation sheet is generally required to be used for attenuating light intensity and then the CCD is used for collecting, so that the light intensity two-dimensional distribution on a CCD plane is obtained, and the far-field divergence angle of a light beam is calculated. However, CCD instruments are relatively expensive (typically imported and mostly over sixty-thousand per set), and are not conducive to wide spread.
In the prior art, document CN111351641a discloses a method and a device for measuring the far-field divergence angle of a laser: determining an X axis, a Y axis and a Z axis, forming a measuring plane by XZ, setting a laser at the origin of the measuring plane, and enabling a light sensitive surface of a detector to face a light emitting surface of the laser; the detector rotates on a Y axis, detects the light intensity of the laser, obtains the diameter of a light spot, and calculates a far-field divergence angle perpendicular to a junction plane or parallel to the junction plane; rotating the laser by 90 degrees, rotating the detector by a Y axis, detecting the light intensity emitted by the laser, obtaining the diameter of a light spot, and calculating a far-field divergence angle parallel to a junction plane or perpendicular to the junction plane; the vertical divergence angle and the horizontal divergence angle of the laser are obtained. However, it is difficult to ensure the accuracy of the detection result in the actual operation process by adopting the method, because the laser needs to be rotated by 90 degrees when detecting the vertical divergence angle and the horizontal divergence angle, which is difficult to ensure that the center of the light source is not changed after the laser is rotated by 90 degrees; moreover, the projections received as their detector is moved are likely to not correspond to the long and short axes of the spot center.
More importantly, the method for detecting the divergence angle of the laser by adopting the existing method also has the problem of complex operation process and has higher requirements on technicians. How to implement detection of the divergence angle of a semiconductor laser in a manner that is simple to operate and suitable for a person of ordinary skill using low cost equipment is a problem to be solved.
