Abstract:
In order to get laser incident angle from transmission of non-mechanical scanning Fabry-Perot etalon, a new Fabry-Perot etalon is designed, whose transmission is nearly linear to incident angle. The principle of thin film optics was applied, and the influence of the parameter change of antireflection coating and reflective film on transmission was investigated for oblique incident beam, especially for high incident angle. Main parameters of Fabry-Perot etalon were selected by simulating 1.06m laser wavelength. K9 glass was selected as reflection plate material. When reflection film is ZnS, its cavitylength is (4755)nm, film thickness is (655)nm and vertical reflectance ratio is 20.7%~24.0%, approximate linear relation is T=-52.23+87.92, nonlinear error is 5%. When reflection film is Ag, its cavity-length is (46010)nm, film thickness is (3.800.15)nm and vertical reflectance ratio is 22.4%~24.8%, approximate linear relation is T=-52.28+82.05, nonlinear error is 4%. Further study will be conducted for the implementation and fabrication process of this technology.
