Description

Multilayer air-flow cooling laser device outgoing mirror device
Technical field
The present invention relates to the high power pulse gas laser, particularly relate to the outgoing mirror structure of the pulsed gas laser of average power more than thousands of watts.
Background technology
The majority of gas laser is (like CO 2, CO, N 2, quasi-molecule etc.) operation principle be: adopt the discharge excitation mode to make gas working dielectric generation population inversion; Produce spontaneous radiation and stimulated radiation; And the optical resonator of certain version is set in the excitation region both sides, stimulated radiation can repeated oscillation be amplified form laser orientation output.Optical resonator generally is made up of two speculums; The high power pulse gas laser adopts " flat-recessed " optical stabilization chamber more; Wherein one is that material is the concave spherical surface completely reflecting mirror of Cu, and another piece is that material is that the planar section speculum of ZnSe promptly is a laser output mirror.Generally, laser output mirror also is a potted component in airtight laser work chamber.The laser work chamber is operated under the vacuum state mostly, and before charging into working gas, must be evacuated down to below a few handkerchief pressure, so that foreign gas content is few.Like this, outerplanar just exists the pressure reduction that equals an atmospheric pressure basically in the laser output window, so it must possess bigger thickness and to bear pressure plastic deformation even damage does not take place.Common design principle is that the thickness of outgoing mirror needs greater than 1/10th of its outside dimension, for example: if the external diameter 90mm of an outgoing mirror, its thickness should be taken as 9~10mm.
Found such problem in the research at present; When the power output of pulsed gas laser reached more than thousands of watts, laser output mirror obvious impairment occurred or damages phenomenon, along with the increase of power; Outgoing mirror shortens useful life greatly, and this has a strong impact on its practical applications.With high power pulse CO 2Laser is an example, and when laser output average power surpassed 7kW, continuous emission excimer laser a few minutes, phenomenon promptly appearred damaging to its ZnSe outgoing mirror in inboard reflectance coating in the chamber.A special example is: at pulse CO 2During laser works, its outgoing mirror inner side plane has received the pollution of discharge sputter and gaseous impurity, and when launching 5 minutes continuously with the 10kW average power, phenomenon appears bursting in this outgoing mirror.
The damage of laser output mirror has plated film damage and two kinds of situation of material body damage; The type of damage also can be divided into the energy damage and power damages two kinds; The mechanism of action of energy damage is that the instantaneous heat of laser is impacted, and the mechanism of action of power damage is the heat history of laser.Result of study shows that the damage of outgoing mirror plated film mainly is the energy damage, and this is from the continuous CO of equal average power level 2But the situation that the laser outgoing mirror plated film long period uses can contrast out (continuous CO 2Laser output procedure free of discontinuities and energy are steady); Damage to the outgoing mirror material body then mainly is the power damage, the basic and continuous CO of this respect 2Laser character is identical.For addressing this problem; People adopt improve the outgoing mirror coating quality, to the outgoing mirror inner side plane blow antifouling cooling, the outgoing mirror mounting base carried out way such as water flowing cooling; These are necessarily alleviated the damage phenomenon of outgoing mirror plated film; But the effect to reducing the damage of outgoing mirror bulk material is not obvious, and main cause is that the conductive coefficient of ZnSe is very little, and the outside speed of transmitting of heat that is accumulated in the material core is too slow.Since after the damage of outgoing mirror plated film can be removed through polishing again plated film reuse, and the material body damage causes phenomenon such as outgoing mirror cracks, fragmentation and can't reuse again, becomes problem demanding prompt solution so avoid the outgoing mirror material body to damage.
Summary of the invention
Make the core heat be difficult to spread out of as early as possible because of outgoing mirror is thicker to cause material body to produce the problem of damage in order to solve, the present invention provides a kind of multilayer air-flow cooling laser device outgoing mirror device.

Embodiment
Below in conjunction with accompanying drawing and specific embodiment the present invention is explained further details.
The double-layer air-flow cooling laser device outgoing mirror device that constitutes with two outgoing mirrors is that example is explained the present invention as follows:
Double-layer air-flow cooling laser device outgoing mirror device is an outgoing mirror that has laser now to be changed into by two outgoing mirrors constitute; The external diameter of two outgoing mirrors is identical with former outgoing mirror; Thickness equates and equals 1/2nd of a former outgoing mirror thickness; For example, suppose that a former outgoing mirror thickness is 10mm, then the thickness of two outgoing mirrors all is 5mm.An one side in two outgoing mirrors is plated the partial reflection film, and another side plating anti-reflection film is also claimed antireflective film; Anti-reflection film is all plated on another piece outgoing mirror two sides.Two outgoing mirrors are coaxial and laterally arrange during installation; An outgoing mirror that is coated with the partial reflection film is placed near laser works chamber side; And the one side that will be coated with the partial reflection film is towards the inboard; Promptly the concave surface completely reflecting mirror with the laser optical resonant cavity is relative, and takes encapsulating method (as sealing with rubber seal) so that the laser works chamber keeps air-tight state with laser works cavity contact-making surface; Another piece outgoing mirror is placed on the contact atmospheric side.The air ring that adopts a metal material to process between two outgoing mirrors is separated by; Air ring radially is being provided with two relative through holes; Its two side plane has high parallel accuracy; Can make the high parallel accuracy of maintenance between two outgoing mirrors, and all take encapsulating method (as sealing), make the space that forms between two outgoing mirrors also can remain on air-tight state with rubber seal with two outgoing mirror contact-making surfaces.Two outgoing mirrors and air ring are fixed on the laser works cavity through a mount pad.
Double-layer air-flow cooling laser device outgoing mirror device is except that keeping the original technique method as eyeglass inner side plane (promptly leaning on laser works chamber side) being applied air blowing (the hybrid working gas that promptly prepares) antifouling cooling and mount pad being added the water flowing cooling; Increased a technical method again; Promptly the space that forms between two outgoing mirrors is applied mobile refrigerating gas; Through certain pipeline draw bail this gas channel is remained under the air-tight state; Outside vacuum pump and the pressure-display device of connecting of pipeline; Add in the pipeline drive blower fan make gas form sealing and circulating flow (promptly with the laser work chamber in gas-circulating system identical), also can in pipeline, add heat exchanger in case of necessity.During use, adopt clean gas (like high pure nitrogen) that closed conduit is cleaned up earlier, adopt vacuum pump to be evacuated to 0.5 atmospheric pressure (being 0.05MPa) then, when emission laser, start the driving blower fan internal gas is circulated.
Resist inside and outside interplanar and be 1 atmospheric pressure (being 0.1MPa) to the maximum because the existing laser window that adopts an outgoing mirror must have bigger thickness; The laser heat that makes the material core absorb is difficult to spread out of fast; Cause the core and the outside to have very big temperature difference, thereby make material be easy to deform or damage.Know that as people the thickness of material is thin more, it is just short more that the heat of core passes to the time in the outside, Here it is the chamber wall of all heat exchangers and the very thin reason that fin thickness is all done as far as possible.Therefore; The double-layer air-flow cooling laser device outgoing mirror device of present embodiment is to change a former thicker outgoing mirror into two thin outgoing mirrors; Purpose is exactly to make the heat of material core spread out of as early as possible, and reduces the temperature difference in the core and the outside, and between two outgoing mirrors, has set up the sealing and circulating cooling blast; Further strengthened cooling effect to outgoing mirror; This has reduced the degree of injury of laser to the outgoing mirror material body to a great extent, has improved the cycle in useful life of outgoing mirror material body greatly, also the damage of outgoing mirror plated film has been played simultaneously and has been slowed down effect.Because the thickness of a former outgoing mirror can be resisted 1 atmospheric pressure; And the outgoing mirror of its 1/2nd thickness can not be resisted this pressure; So present embodiment becomes airtight with the airpath design between two outgoing mirrors, in use it is charged into 0.5 atmospheric gas, like this; The maximum pressure that every outgoing mirror bore just can not surpass 0.5 atmospheric pressure; Then the eyeglass of two 1/2nd thickness respectively bears 0.5 atmospheric pressure, and the state that bears 1 atmospheric pressure with a former eyeglass is identical, can satisfy instructions for use fully.Adopt high pure nitrogen can ignore to the influence of laser output power (or energy) as coolant.Air ring between two outgoing mirrors has high parallel accuracy because of two side planes, can make two outgoing mirrors have high parallel accuracy, thereby can not exert an influence to the transmission direction of laser.
