Development of Fiber Optic Systems for Recording and Transmitting Holographic Information.

Abstract

The overall aim of the work was to design and test self-contained, automated, fiber-based optical systems to measure displacement in production-related or dynamic testing applications. To this end, stability requirements imposed on fibers and optical elements required for remote holographic interferometric analysis have been evaluated for continuous wave laser systems, and techniques were developed to record interferograms on non-isolated and submerged test objects. Thermoplastics have been incorporated into fiber-based systems to record time-average and real-time holograms, and holographic/fiber-optic systems have been practically applied to evaluated the thermal deformation response of microcircuit modules. Keywords: Optical systems; Laser systems; Thermoplastics; Fiber optics; Fiber optic Systems; Holograph applications.
