Title:
POWER BALANCE DEVICE FOR LASER LIGHT, AND LASER PROCESSING DEVICE
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2017/126363
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
The purpose of the present invention is to provide a laser processing device that makes it easy to perform stable laser processing on a workpiece, and a power balance device for laser light that is used in the laser processing device. Provided is a power balance device for laser light that comprises: a polarization retarder on which far infrared laser light is incident and in which a diffraction grating, where a plurality of convexities composed of the same material as a substrate material extend each rectilinearly in parallel at a set period P, is formed on one principal surface of a pair of opposite principal surfaces such that the structural birefringence of the diffraction grating can be utilized, the period P of the diffraction grating satisfying P <λ/n (where λ is the wavelength of the incident light and n is the refractive index of the substrate material); and a rotation mechanism for rotating the polarization retarder.
