摘要
利用双光梳飞行时间法对小口径太赫兹天线及反射器面形进行了三维测量。实验中,单像素点测量时间为8μs,纵向测量误差为1.3μm。相较于传统的激光干涉法,双光梳法兼具了模糊距离大、测量精度高以及数据更新快等优势,为微波/太赫兹器件的面形测量提供了新途径。
Objective Microwave and terahertz(THz)devices,such as antennas and reflectors,are useful in communication,navigation,and remote sensing.The laser tracking and measuring technology plays an important role in characterizing microwave/THz devices,such as surface measuring.Laser tracking and measuring,which is based on laser interferometry,provides high spatial resolution and accuracy for precise surface topography measurements.However,it has limitations such as a limited dynamic range,a low update rate,and difficulty measuring absolute distance.A coherent light source with significantly advanced laser sensing and ranging is provided by an optical frequency comb,which is made up of a large number of equally spaced optical frequency lines(or comb teeth).Dual-comb-ranging interferometry,which uses two asynchronous optical combs to measure absolute distance,provides high precision,large ambiguity range,and high speed.This method,which does not use moving mirrors,demonstrates significant advantages in laser ranging and holographic imaging.The measurement process,however,can be time-consuming due to a camera’s limited frame read-out speed.As a result,the benefits of dual-comb technology have not been fully exploited in imaging applications.Furthermore,dual-comb interferometry is yet to be used to characterize THz devices.In this paper,the dual-comb technique,combined with high-speed two-dimensional scanning mirrors,is applied to the surface measuring of THz devices.The measurement time per pixel for a three-dimensional(3D)image with 2.5×105 pixel is about 8μs.The longitudinal measurement error is 1.3μm(reduced to 5 nm at 0.1 s integration time),and the ambiguity range can reach 300 m.The experimental results show that dual-comb imaging is a useful and reliable tool for measuring the surface of microwave/THz devices with high precision.Methods Two near-infrared electro-optic combs(EOC 1 and EOC 2)are used for constructing a dual-comb interferometer(Fig.1).Each EOC contains a Fabry-Perot phase modulator driven by a rad
