Transient dynamical–thermoelastic–optical system simulation is an important expansion of classical ray tracing through rigid, resting lenses because the operating performance of high-precision optical systems can be influenced by dynamical excitations or thermal gradients. In this paper an approach for an integrated optical system simulation using the coupling of elastic multibody system simulations, thermoelastic finite element analysis and gradient-index ray tracing is presented. Transient mechanical rigid body motions and elastic deformations, thermally induced refraction index changes, and thermal elastic deformations can be considered simultaneously in the ray tracing using the presented method. The calculation of the dynamical and thermal disturbances, the data transfer and coupling, and the gradient index ray tracing method are introduced. Finally, the approach is applied on a transient triplet lens optical system and some investigation results are shown.

在CdSe晶体光参量振荡器(OPO)中, 泵浦激光经过晶体后产生大量废热, 使CdSe晶体出现明显热透镜效应, 从而导致泵浦激光的光斑半径在晶体内部不断变小, 最终降低了晶体的损伤阈值和OPO的输出功率。本文利用COMSOL软件对高重频脉冲激光泵浦CdSe晶体进行多物理场建模, 完成了CdSe晶体热透镜效应仿真, 通过参数优化, 发现对流系数与晶体最大温度成反比, 与晶体后端面和焦点的光斑半径成正比, 聚焦位置随对流系数增加趋于稳定。单脉冲能量和重复频率与晶体最大温度和焦点的光斑半径成正比, 与晶体后端面光斑半径和聚焦位置成反比。准直激光光斑半径与晶体最大温度成反比, 与晶体后端面光斑半径、聚焦位置和焦点光斑半径成正比。该研究解决了CdSe OPO中晶体后端面光斑半径难以直接测量的问题, 为优化CdSe晶体热透镜效应提供了理论依据。
