A laser machining device 1 includes a laser light source 10, a spatial light modulator 20, a controller 22, a converging optical system 30, and a shielding member 40. The phase-modulating spatial light modulator 20 inputs a laser beam outputted from the laser light source 10, displays a hologram modulating a phase of the laser beam at each of a plurality of pixels arranged two-dimensionally, and outputs the phase-modulated laser beam. The controller 22 causes the spatial light modulator 20 to display a plurality of holograms sequentially, lets the converging optical system 30 converge the laser beam outputted from the spatial light modulator 20 at converging positions having a fixed number of M, selectively places N converging positions out of the M converging positions into a machining region 91, and machines an object to be machined 90.

A laser light source 1 is provided with a first reflection mirror 11, a laser medium 12, an aperture 13, an output mirror 14, a half mirror 15, a light beam diameter adjuster 16, and a second reflection mirror 17, and outputs laser oscillation light 31 reflected by the half mirror 15 to the outside. The main resonator is composed by the first reflection mirror 11 and the output mirror 14 disposed so as to be opposed to each other with the laser medium 12 placed therebetween. The external resonator is composed by the output mirror 14 and the second reflection mirror 17 disposed so as to be opposed to each other. The second reflection mirror 17 is configured such that it gives amplitude or phase variations to respective positions in the section of a light beam when the light is reflected, the second reflection mirror presents an amplitude or phase variation distribution, and determines the transverse mode of the laser oscillation light 31 based on the amplitude or phase variation distribution. Thus, a laser light source capable of easily controlling the transverse mode of the laser oscillation light can be realized.

A laser processing device includes a laser light source, a spatial light modulator, a control section, and a condensing optical system. The spatial light modulator, presents a hologram for modulating the phase of the laser light in each of a plurality of two-dimensionally arrayed pixels, and outputs the phase-modulated laser light. The control section causes a part of the phase-modulated laser light (incident light) to be condensed at a condensing position in a processing region as a laser light (contribution light) having a constant energy not less than a predetermined threshold X. The control section causes a laser light (unnecessary light) other than the contribution light condensed to the condensing position existing in the processing region to be dispersed and condensed at a condensing position existing in a non-processing region as a plurality of laser lights (non-contribution lights) having an energy less than the predetermined threshold.

摘要:
The light beam generator 1 is provided with a laser light source 10, an optical phase modulation element 15 and others. The optical phase modulation element 15 receives coherent light output from the laser light source 10 and passed through a beam splitter 14 to modulate a phase of the light depending on a position on the beam cross section of the light, and outputs the light after the phase modulation to the beam splitter 14. A polar coordinate system (r, θ) in which a predetermined position is given as an origin is set on the beam cross section of the light input in the optical phase modulation element 15, and when (p+1) domains divided by p (number of pieces) circumferences in which the predetermined position is given as a center are set, of these (p+1) domains, a phase modulation amount φ at each position inside an even numbered domain counted from the inside is expressed by a formula of “φ=qθ”, and a phase modulation amount φ at each position inside an odd numbered domain counted from the inside is expressed by a formula of “φ=qθ+π”.
