Optics Characterization refers to the process of evaluating and measuring the optical properties of materials such as glass, polymers, and crystals, to determine their performance in optical applications. At Barnett Technical Services, we offer specialized optics characterization services, utilizing cutting-edge equipment such as polariscope strain viewers for transparent optics, and surface stress meters for strengthened glasses. These advanced tools provide precise and non-destructive stress analysis, ensuring optimal material performance and durability.
Optics Characterization
Equipment Used in Optics Characterization Services
We utilize state-of-the-art instruments to ensure precise and non-destructive stress analysis in optical materials. Our advanced equipment includes:- Polariscope Strain Viewers: The Polariscope strain viewer is a non-destructive optical instrument designed to analyze stress and strain in transparent materials such as glass and plastics. By detecting optical retardation (which is directly related to stress), it accurately determines both the direction and magnitude of internal stresses. At Barnett Technical Services, we are an authorized distributor of Luceo polariscopes, offering industry-leading strain analysis solutions.
- Surface Stress Meters: Surface Stress Meters provide precise measurements of Compressive Stress (CS) and Depth of Layer (DOL) values in strengthened glass by analyzing optical path differences at different polarizations. Barnett Technical Services is an authorized distributor of Orihara Surface Stress Meters, which are known for their accuracy and reliability.
