BACKGROUND
Field of the Disclosure

The disclosure relates to a laser interferometric displacement measuring method and apparatus, in particular to a differential sinusoidal phase modulation laser interferometric nanometer displacement measuring apparatus and method, belonging to the technical field of precision measurement.


Description of Related Art

High-precision nanometer displacement measurement is of great importance in the application of technical fields such as ultra-precision machining, micro-electronics manufacturing, and precise test and measurement. Laser interferometry measurement is widely applied in high-end manufacturing, precise measurement, big science research and other fields because of its large measurement range, high measurement accuracy and direct traceability to the laser wavelength. Based on the difference between the interference signal processing methods, they are mainly categorized into single frequency interferometry, heterodyne interferometry and sinusoidal phase modulation interferometry. Single frequency interferometry by nature detects the DC light intensity. The DC light intensity drift, direct subdivision of interference fringes and non-quadrature interference signal will result in larger error. Heterodyne interferometry is an AC detection, which can overcome the influence of DC light intensity drift. But, due to the first-order nonlinearity errors caused by frequency mixing and polarization mixing, the improvement of measurement accuracy is limited. Sinusoidal phase modulation interferometry modulates the DC interference signal of single frequency interferometer into a high-frequency sinusoidal carrier and its harmonic signal sidebands, which can improve the anti-interference ability of the interference signal. However, it is difficult to improve the accuracy of displacement measurement due to temperature changes and environmental fluctuations of the reference arm and the measurement arm of the interferometer during the measurement process.


SUMMARY OF THE DISCLOSURE

In view of the deficiencies in the related art, the purpose of the disclosure is to provide a differential sinusoidal phase modulation laser interferometric nanometer displacement measuring apparatus and method. Two sets of sinusoidal phase modulation interferometers are constructed simultaneously, an electro-optic phase modulator is placed in the common reference arms of the two interferometers, and the DC interference signals of the two interferometers are modulated into high-frequency sinusoidal carrier AC signals. The difference between the phase change amounts of the two interference signals is demodulated and calculated to obtain the measured displacement, thereby realizing sub-nanometer displacement measurement.


The technical solution adopted by the disclosure for solving its technical problem is:


1. A differential sinusoidal phase modulation laser interferometric nanometer displacement measuring apparatus:


The apparatus includes a single-frequency laser, a polarizer, a beam splitter, a half wave plate, an electro-optic phase modulator, a first pyramid prism, a first polarization beam splitter, a second pyramid prism, a third pyramid prism, a second polarization beam splitter, a first photodetector and a second photodetector. The beam emitted from the single-frequency laser is converted into a linearly polarized beam with 45° polarization direction with respect to beam propagation direction after passing through the polarizer. Then, this 45° linearly polarized beam is incident on the beam splitter and divided into transmitted beam and reflected beam. The reflected beam from the beam splitter is modulated into s-polarized beam after passing through the half wave plate, which is then modulated by the electro-optic phase modulator and then projected onto the first pyramid prism. The reflected beam from the first pyramid prism passes through the half wave plate again and then becomes 45° linearly polarized beam and is incident on the beam splitter for transmission. The transmitted beam from the beam splitter is incident on the first polarization beam splitter for reflection and transmission, and respectively divided into two orthogonal linearly polarized beams in s-polarization and p-polarization. The s-polarized beam reflected by the first polarization beam splitter is projected onto the second pyramid prism. The p-polarized beam transmitted by the first polarization beam splitter is projected onto the third pyramid prism. The s-polarized beam reflected by the second pyramid prism and the p-polarized beam reflected by the third pyramid prism return to the first polarization beam splitter and are combined into an orthogonal linearly polarized beam and then incident to the beam splitter for reflection. The 45° linearly polarized beam passed through the half wave plate and the orthogonal linearly polarized beam returned from the first polarization beam splitter are merged at the beam splitter. Specifically, interference is generated between the s-polarized component of the 45° linearly polarized beam and the s-polarized component of the orthogonal linearly polarized beam to form an s-polarized interference signal; and interference is generated between the p-polarized component of the 45° linearly polarized beam and the p-polarized beam of the orthogonal linearly polarized beam to form a p-polarized interference signal. The s-polarized interference signal serves as a reference interference signal and is received by the first photodetector after being reflected by the second polarization beam splitter. The p-polarized interference signal serves as a measurement interference signal and is received by the second photodetector after being transmitted by the second polarization beam splitter.


The polarization transmission direction of the polarizer is 45° to the beam propagation direction.


The optical axis of the half wave plate is 22.5° to the beam propagation direction.


The electro-optic phase modulator is placed between the half wave plate and the first pyramid prism, and modulates the s-polarized beam output from the half wave plate and transmitted to the first pyramid prism. The electric field of the electro-optic phase modulator is applied along with the polarization direction of s-polarized beam.


2. A differential sinusoidal phase modulation laser interferometric nanometer displacement measuring method:


1) The beam with a wavelength of λ emitted from the single-frequency laser is converted by the polarizer into linearly polarized beam with 45° polarization direction with respect to beam propagation direction after passing through the polarizer, and this 45° linearly polarized beam is respectively projected onto the reference sinusoidal phase modulation interferometer consisting of the beam splitter, the half wave plate, the electro-optic phase modulator, the first pyramid prism, the first polarization beam splitter and the second pyramid prism as well as the measurement sinusoidal phase modulation interferometer consisting of the same beam splitter, the half wave plate, the electro-optic phase modulator, the first pyramid prism, the first polarization beam splitter and a different third pyramid prism, thereby forming the reference interference signal and the measurement interference signal respectively, and then are received by two photodetectors (11, 12) after being split by the second polarization beam splitter.


2) The electro-optic phase modulator is placed between the half wave plate and the first pyramid prism of the sinusoidal phase modulation interferometer, and modulates the s-polarized beam emitted from the half wave plate and incident into the first pyramid prism. A high-frequency sinusoidal carrier voltage with electric field direction is consistent with the polarization direction of the s-polarized beam is applied to the electro-optic phase modulator, thereby modulating the interference signals of the reference sinusoidal phase modulation interferometer and the measurement sinusoidal phase modulation interferometer into high-frequency sinusoidal carrier AC interference signals.


3) The third pyramid prism is fixed on the object to be measured. When the third pyramid prism is moved a displacement ΔL, the PGC phase demodulation method is adopted to obtain the phase change amount ΔφR of the reference interference signal and the phase change amount ΔφM of the measurement interference signal, which are respectively as follows:

DESCRIPTION OF EMBODIMENTS

The disclosure will be further described in details hereinafter with the Figures and Embodiments.


As shown in FIG. 1, the disclosure includes a single-frequency laser 1, a polarizer 2, a beam splitter 3, a half wave plate 4, an electro-optic phase modulator 5, a first pyramid prism 6, a first polarization beam splitter 7, a second pyramid prism 8, a third pyramid prism 9, a second polarization beam splitter 10, a first photodetector 11 and a second photodetector 12. The beam emitted from the single-frequency laser 1 is converted into a linearly polarized beam with 45° polarization direction with respect to beam propagation direction after passing through the polarizer 2. Then, this 45° linearly polarized beam is incident on the beam splitter 3 and divided into transmitted beam and reflected beam. The reflected output beam from the beam splitter 3 is modulated into s-polarized beam after passing through the half wave plate 4, which is then modulated by the electro-optic phase modulator 5 and then projected onto the first pyramid prism 6. The reflected beam from the first pyramid prism 6 passes through the half wave plate 4 again and then becomes 45° linearly polarized beam and is incident on the beam splitter 3 for transmission. The transmitted beam from the beam splitter 3 is incident on the first polarization beam splitter 7 for reflection and transmission, and respectively divided into two orthogonal linearly polarized beams in s-polarization and p-polarization. The s-polarized beam reflected by the first polarization beam splitter 7 is projected onto the second pyramid prism 8. The p-polarized beam transmitted by the first polarization beam splitter is projected onto the third pyramid prism 9. The s-polarized beam reflected by the second pyramid prism 8 and the p-polarized beam reflected by the third pyramid prism 9 return to the first polarization beam splitter 7 and are combined into an orthogonal linearly polarized beam and then incident to the beam splitter 3 for reflection. The 45° linearly polarized beam passed through the half wave plate 4 and the orthogonal linearly polarized beam returned from the first polarization beam splitter 7 are merged at the beam splitter 3. Specifically, interference is generated between the s-polarized component of the 45° linearly polarized beam and the s-polarized component of the orthogonal linearly polarized beam to form an s-polarized interference signal; and interference is generated between the p-polarized component of the 45° linearly polarized beam and the p-polarized beam of the orthogonal linearly polarized beam to form a p-polarized interference signal. The s-polarized interference signal serves as a reference interference signal and is received by the first photodetector 11 after being reflected by the second polarization beam splitter 10. The p-polarized interference signal serves as a measurement interference signal and is received by the second photodetector 12 after being transmitted by the second polarization beam splitter 10.

Two sets of interferometers are formed as described above. The electro-optic phase modulator 5 is used to modulate the DC interference signal of the interferometer into a high-frequency sinusoidal carrier AC signal. When the third pyramid prism 9 fixed on the object to be measured moves, it makes the phase of the measurement interferometer to change, by detecting the phase change amounts of the two interferometers, the displacement can be calculated and obtained more accurately.


The polarization transmission direction of the polarizer 2 is 45° to the beam propagation direction, and the optical axis of the half wave plate 4 is 22.5° to the beam propagation direction.
