基于旋转多面镜的高速光束扫描技术

High-speed beam scanning technique based on rotating polyhedral mirror

  • 摘要: 在连续变量量子信息处理、扫描抽运中红外激光器、全光器件光声成像等应用领域,为了满足对宽场快速平行光束扫描的需求,采用一种基于旋转多面镜和直角反射镜的光束扫描技术,通过理论分析旋转多面镜的面数、尺寸、多面镜与直角反射镜之间的间距等参数对光束扫描范围、光束线扫描速率、光束扫描转角等的影响,设计并实验制备了平行光束扫描装置。结果表明,当旋转八面镜的转速设定为(π/18) rad/s时,光束在距离扫描系统52.00 mm处的扫描轨迹范围为27.79 mm,扫描线速率为0.032 m/s,且在整个扫描周期内光束基本保持平行移动,相对于入射光束的平行度约为1.95×10−5。此平行光束扫描技术的扫描范围覆盖常规集成光芯片尺寸或小动物尺寸,单程扫描时间为秒级,光束始终平行移动的1维光束扫描,且可根据具体需求更改参数以单独优化扫描范围或扫描速率,为全光器件光声成像、多路复用量子通信等前沿研究提供了技术支撑。

     

    Abstract: In applications such as continuous-variable quantum information processing, scanning-pumped mid-infrared lasers, and all-optical photoacoustic imaging devices, a beam scanning technique based on a rotating polyhedral mirror and a right-angle reflector was adopted to meet the demand for wide-field, high-speed parallel beam scanning. By theoretically analyzing the effects of key parameters such as the number of facets and size of the rotating polyhedral mirror, as well as the spacing between the polyhedral mirror and the right-angle reflector on the beam scanning range, line scanning speed, and scanning angle, a parallel beam scanning device was designed and experimentally developed. The results demonstrated that when the rotating octahedral mirror was operated at an angular velocity of (π/18) rad/s, the beam scanning trajectory at 52.00 mm from the scanning system covered a range of 27.79 mm, with a linear scanning velocity of 0.032 m/s. The beam maintained near-parallel movement throughout the scanning cycle with parallelism relative to the incident beam of approximately 1.95×10−5. This parallel beam scanning technique enabled one-dimensional scanning with the following features: a scanning range covering conventional integrated optical chip or small animal sizes, a single-pass scanning time of on the order of seconds, and consistently parallel beam motion. Moreover, the parameters could be adjusted according to specific needs to optimize the scanning range or scanning rate individually, providing technical support for cutting-edge research such as all-optical photoacoustic imaging and multiplexed quantum communication.
