为了解决基于长度可变真空腔的激光干涉空气折射率测量中透光窗片倾斜和真空腔内残余气压对测量精度的影响,本文分析了真空腔拉伸过程中透光窗片倾斜引入的误差,并提出了透光窗片倾斜误差检测和补偿方法,同时研究了真空腔内残余气压的测量和补偿方法。为了验证所提出方法的可行性,搭建了基于长度可变真空腔的激光干涉空气折射率测量系统,测量结果与Edlén公式结果进行对比。实验结果显示,本系统测量结果与Edlén公式结果具有较好的一致性,在2.2 h和20 min内,两者之间偏差的标准偏差分别为2.34×10~(-8)和2.89×10~(-8),这表明本文所提出的空气折射率测量误差补偿方法是可行和有效的,可应用于激光干涉精密位移测量中空气折射率的实时补偿。     

脱胶缺陷尺寸对复合材料加筋板屈曲及后屈曲特性的影响

为确定脱胶缺陷对复合材料加筋板屈曲及后屈曲特性的影响,对含不同脱胶缺陷工型筋条的复合材料加筋板进行了压缩试验研究。结果表明,30 mm和50 mm的缺陷对试验件承载能力影响很小,当缺陷尺寸增至80 mm时,试验件后屈曲承载能力明显下降。借助超声检测技术对缺陷的扩展行为进行了监测,结果表明,当压缩载荷达到破坏载荷的85.3%时,预制缺陷的对角位置处出现扩展迹象。通过影像云纹法获得两半波和三半波失稳模态的形成过程。对失稳模态的监测结果还表明,随缺陷长度增加,该型加筋板的失稳模态从三半波向两半波转换。在试验基础上,利用ABAQUS软件建立有限元（FE）模型,依次进行了屈曲及后屈曲过程的数值模拟。屈曲分析用于获得试验件的失稳载荷及模态,在后屈曲分析中将失稳波形以几何扰动的形式引入FE模型,最终计算结果与试验结果基本吻合,表明该模型可以用于复合材料加筋板屈曲及后屈曲性能的预测。

Advancement of an Interferometric Flow Velocity Measurement Technique by Adaptive Optics

Flow measurements often take place under difficult conditions. Optical flow measurement techniques are affected by variations of the refractive index, caused e.g., by temperature, concentration, or pressure gradients. This will give rise to an increased measurement uncertainty or cause the measurement to fail. To overcome these limitations, we propose the employment of adaptive optics. In this contribution we present interferometric flow velocity measurements through a fluctuating air-water interface by the use of adaptive optics. Using the adaptive optics, the rate of valid measurement signals can be improved from 28% to 83%. The results are promising to enable measurements in difficult environments affected by refractive index variations which were not accessible so far.     

Measurement optimum condition of speckle interferometry based on dual-camera technique

The speckle interferometer based on multi-camera technology using two cameras is applied to a dynamic deformation measurement of the package of an electronic device. To perform high precise measurement by this method, the optimum conditions for measurements are discussed concerning the size of speckle and the frequency of carrier signals. Under the optimum conditions, the deformation process of the package during the operation of an operational amplifier is measured. Then, the local maximum deformation can be estimated as 150 nm from experimental results. From the results, it can be also confirmed that electronic devices are deformed by the stress of a heat by an operation every second during the operating time.     

Nanocharacterization in Dentistry

About 80% of US adults have some form of dental disease. There are a variety of new dental products available, ranging from implants to oral hygiene products that rely on nanoscale properties. Here, the application of AFM (Atomic Force Microscopy) and optical interferometry to a range of dentistry issues, including characterization of dental enamel, oral bacteria, biofilms and the role of surface proteins in biochemical and nanomechanical properties of bacterial adhesins, is reviewed. We also include studies of new products blocking dentine tubules to alleviate hypersensitivity; antimicrobial effects of mouthwash and characterizing nanoparticle coated dental implants. An outlook on future “nanodentistry” developments such as saliva exosomes based diagnostics, designing biocompatible, antimicrobial dental implants and personalized dental healthcare is presented.     

Temperature dependence of the thermophysical properties of Neodymium doped borate glasses

We have experimentally measured the temperature dependence of the thermophysical properties of Nd₂O₃ doped borate glasses using a combination of the time resolved thermal lens technique with optical interferometry, thermal relaxation calorimetry and photoluminescence methods. Thermal diffusivity, thermal conductivity, fluorescence quantum efficiency, linear thermal expansion coefficient and thermal coefficient of the electronic polarizability were determined. The results showed the ability of these techniques to perform measurements very close to the glass transition region providing the absolute values of the measured physical quantities and the glass transition temperatures. In conclusion, it was observed that thermal lens and optical interferometry are advantageous methods for measurements as a function of temperature especially when low temperature scanning rate is required.     

On‐line opto‐viscoelastic analysis of polypropylene fibres using multiple‐beam Fizeau fringes in transmission and a modified creep device

A creep device attached to an automated multiple‐beam Fizeau system in transmission was modified with a designed digital ruler. This device allows on‐line measurements of fibre length during creep experiments in terms of an analogue voltage value. The influence of sustained stress values on creep deformation and optical properties (n^||, n^? and Δn) for polypropylene (PP) fibres was studied interferometrically. The opto‐viscoelastic properties of PP fibres were determined for three different values of constant applied stress of 11.536, 18.717 and 25.905 MPa, at room temperature. Also, the variations of the cross‐sectional area and Poisson's ratio were studied during creep extensions. The compliance curves were obtained as a function of both time and applied stresses. Empirical formulae are suggested to describe the creep compliance curves for PP fibres, and the constants of these formulae were determined and described at each applied stress. A Kelvin chain was used to model the mechanical behaviour of the PP fibres under study. The effect of strain on the mean refractive indices, orientation function density and crystallinity was investigated as a result of the recorded data. Microinterferograms are given for illustration. The modified creep device with the designed digital ruler enables one to obtain instantaneous automatic accurate recording of fibre length values during creep experiments. Calculation of refractive indices, orientation function and crystallinity shows a difference in material behaviour at small stresses from that at higher stresses which may be attributed to different strain rates caused by different stresses.
