摘　　要：为了实现偏振光信号发生单元起偏器光轴方位角的精确测量,介绍了一种采用磁光调制技术与利用直角棱镜和自准直仪来引出光轴方位角的装置及其工作原理,并指出采用普通检偏棱镜时存在的问题。为解决该问题,基于格兰-泰勒棱镜的工作原理设计了一种新型偏振器件,该器件采用三块材料参数完全相同的方解石晶体构成,位于两侧的晶体均可分别与中间的晶体形成一个格兰-泰勒棱镜,使其翻转180°前后均能实现检偏功能;详细介绍了该器件的工作原理及安装和工作方式,并系统分析了新组件在工作过程中可以实现棱镜制造及安装误差的消除,完成光轴方位角的测定。最后通过实验验证了该装置的测角精度为0.5″,且系统具有稳定性高、精度高、可操作性强等特点。In order to achieve azimuth accurate measurement of polarizer axis in the polarization signal generating unit, a device and its working principle were introduced with the use of magneto-optical modulation, right-angled prism and autocollimator to elicit the axis azimuth, and the ordinary polarization prism problems were pointed out. A new type of polarization device was designed based on Glan-Taylor prism to solve this problem, it uses three calcite crystals with identical material composition, each side can form a Glan-Taylor prism respectively with the middle, that it can be a analyzer when it is turned180° around; the working principle of the device and installation and ways of working were described in detail, that the new component can eliminate the prism manufacture and installation errors in the work process was analyzed, it can complete polarizer axis azimuth determination. Finally, experiment results verify that the angle measurement precision of the device is 0.5 ″, and the system has characteristics of high stability, precision and operability, and so on.
