Non-Contact Optical Metrology Instrumentation for Failure Characterization of Transparent Armor Materials

Abstract

This grant was to acquire instrumentation for investigating failure of novel transparent materials. Specifically, a non-contact surface profiling instrument to perform quantitative microscopy of fracture surfaces through postmortem analyses and a digital camera capable of recording the so-called 4D light-field information to interrogate different layers of a previously recorded image.
