And adjusting the delay time of the detection light pulse relative to the pumping light pulse to obtain the condition that the population distribution on each energy level of the excited state of the substance changes along with time, and obtaining the detailed process of the relaxation of the substance molecules from the radiation energy of the excited state to the ground state of other energy levels. By detecting the absorption or reflection spectrum of the sample in the excited state to the detection light, the dynamic process of the action of the substance and the light field is known.

Detailed Description
In order to make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention more apparent, the present invention will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the invention and are not to be construed as limiting the invention.
The integral thought of the invention is that different frequency components of the femtosecond pulse laser are spread in space by utilizing a prism dispersion compensation principle and a double-grating dispersion compensation technology, certain space chirp is introduced, and two beams of the femtosecond pulse laser modulated by chirp are focused at a confocal point of a detected object through an achromatic microscope objective. Different frequency components of the pulse coincide in space and time at the geometric focus of the focusing objective lens, and the shortest pulse width of the Fourier transform limit is achieved. And the simultaneous focusing effect of a time domain and a space domain is realized on different frequency components of the pulse only at the geometric focusing point of the achromatic microscope objective, the broadening effect of the optical system on the pulse is counteracted, and the obtained focusing light spot is small, high in precision and highly three-dimensionally symmetrical. The double-optical-path control can effectively inhibit errors caused by laser fluctuation, and a double-grating and prism dispersion compensation method can effectively realize high signal-to-noise ratio, stability, wide band and multiple control parameters. By combining the X-Y two-dimensional high-precision electric displacement table, a scanning area and spatial resolution can be set according to the specification of a semiconductor laser chip, a spatial resolution transient detection system with high spatial resolution is realized, and the precision of measured data is high.
Fig. 1 shows the structure of a spatially resolved transient system according to one embodiment of the invention.
As shown in fig. 1, a spatially resolved transient system provided by an embodiment of the present invention includes: the device comprises a femtosecond laser source 1, a light splitting element 2, an achromatic microscope objective 5, a detection light modulation light path, a pump light modulation light path and a data acquisition device.
Femtosecond pulse laser light with the central wavelength of 800nm emitted by the femtosecond laser source 1 is divided into two beams by the light splitting element 2, one beam with higher energy is used as pump light, one beam with lower energy is used as probe light, the probe light is reflected to enter a probe light modulation light path, and the pump light is transmitted to enter the pump light modulation light path. The light splitting element 2 may be a beam splitting plate or a dichroic mirror.
The pumping light modulation optical path comprises a first focusing mirror 31, a frequency doubling crystal 32, a first collimating mirror 33, a first dichroic mirror 341, a second dichroic mirror 342, a first mirror group, a double-pass mirror 36, a first grating 371 and a second grating 372.
The first mirror group includes a first mirror 351, a second mirror 352, a third mirror 353, a fourth mirror 354 and a fifth mirror 355.
The pumping light is incident on the frequency doubling crystal 32 after being converged by the first focusing mirror 31, so that the optical density on the frequency doubling crystal 32 is improved. The converged pump light is frequency-doubled by the frequency doubling crystal 32 to form two pump lights, one of which is a long-wavelength-band pump light maintaining the original wavelength, the other of which is a short-wavelength-band pump light smaller than the original wavelength, and the short-wavelength-band pump light and the long-wavelength-band pump light are changed into parallel light through the first collimating mirror 33 and then incident on the first dichroic mirror 341.
Since the short-wavelength-band pump light and the long-wavelength-band pump light are parallel light, the switches 38 may be respectively disposed in the transmission direction and the reflection direction of the first dichroic mirror 341, and the short-wavelength-band pump light and the long-wavelength-band pump light are controlled by the two switches 38.
The long-wavelength-band pump light is transmitted by the first dichroic mirror 341, reflected by the first reflecting mirror 351, reflected by the second reflecting mirror 352, transmitted by the second dichroic mirror 342 and incident to the dichroic mirror 36, the short-wavelength-band pump light is reflected by the first dichroic mirror 341, reflected by the third reflecting mirror 353, reflected by the fourth reflecting mirror 354, reflected by the second dichroic mirror 342 and incident to the dichroic mirror 36, and the short-wavelength-band pump light and the long-wavelength-band pump light are incident to the first grating 371 after stray light is filtered by the dichroic mirror 36.
The first grating 371 and the second grating 372 are arranged in parallel, short-wavelength-band pump light and long-wavelength-band pump light are firstly diffracted on the first grating 371, and diffracted light is diffracted on the second grating 372 again, so that positive chirp can be compensated by adjusting the distance between the first grating 371 and the second grating 372. The first grating 371 and the second grating 372 arranged in parallel can spatially spread different frequency components of the short-wavelength-band pump light and the long-wavelength-band pump light, introduce a certain spatial chirp, and vertically inject the chirp-modulated short-wavelength-band pump light and the chirp-modulated long-wavelength-band pump light into the achromatic microscope objective 5 through the fifth reflector 355 to be focused at a confocal point of the sample 6.
The sample 6 is mounted on a motorized stage 7, and the two-dimensional movement of the sample 6 in the horizontal direction is realized by the motorized stage 7.
Spatial chirp is the effect of spatially spreading light of different wavelengths. Specifically, the short pulse spectral band is wide, the optical refractive indexes of light with different wavelengths are different, and the short wavelength component (high frequency component) in the incident light pulse is high in group velocity and is positioned at the front edge of the pulse after being transmitted by the optical fiber, the long wavelength component (low frequency component) is positioned at the rear edge of the pulse, and the effect of spreading the light with different wavelengths in space is space chirp.
The detection light modulation optical path comprises an optical delay line 41, a half-wave plate 42, a second focusing mirror 43, a white light generating medium 44, a second collimating mirror 45, a second mirror group and a prism group.
The second mirror group includes a sixth mirror 461, a seventh mirror 462, an eighth mirror 463, and a ninth mirror 464.
The detection light sequentially passes through the optical delay line 41, the half-wave plate 42, the second focusing mirror 43, the white light generating medium 44, the second collimating mirror 45, the sixth reflecting mirror 461, the prism group, the seventh reflecting mirror 462, the eighth reflecting mirror 463 and the ninth reflecting mirror 464 to enter the achromatic microscope objective 5, and is focused by a diaphragm at the front end of the achromatic microscope objective 5, so that the detection light is vertically incident on the sample 6.
The detection light is time delayed by an optical delay line 41, so that a time difference is generated between the detection light and the pump light. The optical delay line 41 includes a horizontal displacement stage and a polygon mirror, which may be replaced with a mirror group. The horizontal displacement stage must ensure that the position and orientation of the lower beam is unchanged and the beam shape remains unchanged while moving. The detecting light is required to be parallel light or quasi-parallel light, the incident direction is consistent with the optical delay displacement direction, and a positioning diaphragm 48 is arranged between the optical delay line 41 and the light splitting element 2 to calibrate the position and the direction of the detecting light.
After the polarization adjustment of the optically delayed detection light is realized by the half-wave plate 42, the detection light is converged by the second focusing lens 43 and then enters the white light generating medium 44, so that the light density on the white light generating medium 44 is improved.
The white light generating medium 44 is generally a sapphire crystal, a calcium fluoride crystal, a water tank, etc., wherein the sapphire crystal can generate a stable and smooth spectrum of femtosecond pulse white light with a wavelength starting from about 400nm under the excitation of a fundamental frequency light of 800 nm; calcium fluoride can generate femtosecond pulse white light from 360nm to about 1 μm; the water box can generate femtosecond pulse white light with the wavelength of 450nm to 1.0 μm. The generated wide white light is changed into parallel light by the second collimating mirror 45.
The white light generated by the white light generating medium 44 has a wavelength range of 380nm to 780nm, the wavelength range is wide, the laser beam spot can be widened into a strip after optical delay, and the generated wide white light is changed into parallel light through the second collimating mirror 45 and has a certain geometric space, so that the grating can not be used for group velocity dispersion compensation, and only the prism group can be used for dispersion compensation.
The prism group is added on the detection light modulation optical path to introduce negative group velocity dispersion compensation, and the prism group can compensate positive and negative chirps to offset the pulse broadening effect of the optical system. The distance between the prisms introduces negative group velocity dispersion, while the optical path within the prisms introduces positive group velocity dispersion. Negative group velocity dispersion is caused by the optical path difference of different wavelengths and is only affected by the spacing between prisms. For positive group velocity dispersion, the optical path inside the prism plays a decisive role, and moving the prism in the right direction can change the different wavelengths through the thickness in the prism material to the same extent. Thus, by moving the prism, the value of the positive dispersion can be changed, and the total dispersion result depends on the sum of the positive dispersion and the negative dispersion at different positions of the prism.
The prism group includes a first prism 471, a second prism 472, a third prism 473, and a fourth prism 474, and the wide white light is reflected to the first prism 471 by the sixth reflector 461, and then the light angles of different wavelengths are expanded, and the light angles are expanded continuously after passing through the second prism 472. The third prism 473 is disposed symmetrically to the second prism 472, the fourth prism 474 is disposed symmetrically to the first prism 471, and after passing through the third prism 473 and the fourth prism 474, the split direction of the spectrum is opposite to that before, and thus, the light is converged into one light. And the light is reflected by the seventh reflector 462, the eighth reflector 463 and the ninth reflector 464 in sequence and then enters the achromatic microscope 5 for focusing, so that the effect of simultaneously focusing different frequency components of the detection light in a time domain and a space domain only at the geometric focusing point of the objective lens can be achieved, and the obtained focused light spot is small, high in precision and highly three-dimensionally symmetrical.
In the existing prism group velocity dispersion compensation technology, the design of four prisms is completely the same, however, it is not suitable to perform group velocity dispersion compensation on white light with a wide wavelength range. The prisms change the propagation direction of light and simultaneously change the beam width and the opening angle of the light beam in the incident plane, so that the relative positions and the relative sizes of the four prisms need to be reasonably designed.
Assuming that the white light is composed of a series of parallel monochromatic lights (380nm-780nm), each monochromatic light ray is incident on the first working surface of the first prism 471 at an incident angle of 60 °, the exit surface of the first prism 471 is parallel to the incident surface of the second prism 472, and the distance between the first prism 471 and the second prism 472 is 1 cm.
