Auto-alignment is a basic technique for high-power laser systems. Special techniques have been developed for laser systems because of their differing structures. This paper describes a new sensor for auto-alignment in a laser system, which can also serve as a reference in certain applications. The authors prove that all of the beam transfer information (position and pointing) can theoretically be monitored and recorded by the sensor. Furthermore, auto-alignment with a single lens sensor is demonstrated on a simple beam line, and the results indicate that effective auto-alignment is achieved.

用于自动对准的单镜头传感器和参考

自动对准是高功率激光系统的一项基本技术。由于激光系统的不同结构，已经为激光系统开发了特殊技术。本文介绍了一种用于激光系统中自动对准的新型传感器，在某些应用中也可以作为参考。作者证明，理论上所有的光束传输信息（位置和指向）都可以由传感器监控和记录。此外，在一条简单的光束线上演示了使用单透镜传感器的自动对准，结果表明实现了有效的自动对准。
