The work of preparing International Standards

12、is normally carried out through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take pa

13、rt in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization. Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an International Stan

14、dard requires approval by at least75% of the member bodies casting a vote. International Standard ISO11455 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC172, Optics and optical instruments, Subcommittee SC3, Optical materials and components.

15、.iv blankISO11455:1995(E) BSI 02-2000 1 Introduction Raw optical glass in bulk and preshaped forms may have permanent stress caused by the manufacturing procedure or temporary stress caused by thermal or mechanical load. These stresses cause anisotropy of the refractive index which causes path diffe

16、rences of the light path in the given object (in centimetres) which are measurable by interference optics. The birefringence, in nanometres per centimetre, is valid for the glass piece when isothermal and not mechanically altered and is the integrated value for the resultant wavefront deformation ca

17、used by an anisotropy of the refractive index. 1 Scope This International Standard describes the stress optical method for determining the birefringence in glass, especially in raw optical glass in bulk and pre-shaped forms. This method is also used in photoelasticity. NOTE 1The calculation of the e

18、lastomechanical stress from the birefringence is not the subject of this International Standard. NOTE 2The indication on the drawings of birefringence is specified in ISO10110-2 (see reference2 in Annex A). This test method is applicable for simple geometrical shapes of glass (see clause5). 2 Defini

19、tion For the purposes of this International Standard, the following definition applies. 2.1 birefringence (of glass) an anisotropy of refractive index in optically homogeneous and isotropic glasses, usually induced by mechanical and/or thermal stress. The refractive index depends on the orientation

20、of the plane of polarization and the propagation vector of the electromagnetic wave with respect to the axis of the principal stresses Definition taken from ISO9802. 3 Principle Measurement of the optical path differences by compensation using an optical interference method with polarized light. In

21、the compensation procedure described by de Snarmont and Friedel a phase retardation of one wavelength is produced by a rotation of180 in a linear function, using light of wavelength near maximum of sensitivity of human eye (i.e.546nm to589nm). If an optically isotropic glass body under stress is irr

22、adiated with polarized light in the direction of one principal stress (such as 3 , see Figure 1), the oscillating components in the direction of principal stress, 1and 2 , show a different speed of propagation related to the value in a stress-free glass body. The refractive indices n 1and n 2are rel

23、ated to the principal stresses 1 , 2and 3by: From equations(1) and(2), equation(3) for the difference in refractive index may be obtained: The difference in refractive index (n 1 n 2 ) is the birefringence %n, which is related to the stress optical coefficient K = p q at the wavelength used as follo

24、ws: For the correlation between birefringence, %n, and the optical path difference, %s, between the wave components in the principal stress direction, 1and 2 , after passing through the sample thickness a (which is usually equal to light patha), the following equation may be applied: The birefringen

25、ce %n is given in nanometres per centimetre. 4 Apparatus 4.1 Instrument for measuring the thickness of the specimen at the measuring points to1% e.g.callipers. 4.2 Polarimeter with a compensator as described by de Snarmont and Friedel. 4.2.1 Polarimeter components The polarimeter shall consist of th

26、e following components (see also Figure 2). a) Source of collimated light, e.g.white light source with monochromatic filter for a wavelength of546nm or589nm. b) Diffuser, e.g.an opal glass or a uniformly ground glass screen. . . . (1) . . . (2) where n 0 is the refractive index of the unstressed gla

27、ss; p and q are related to the type of glass. . . . (3) . . . (4) . . . (5)ISO11455:1995(E) 2 BSI 02-2000 c) Polarizer, containing a cross-section line at45 to the polarizing direction. The polarizer is mounted between glass and housed in a rotatable mount capable of being locked in a fixed position

28、. d) Specimen holder. e) Quarter-wave plate, having a retardation equivalent to one quarter of the wavelength of the light being used. It shall be housed in a rotatable mount capable of being locked in a fixed position. f) Analyser, identical to the polarizer. It shall be housed in a rotatable mount

29、 capable of being locked in a fixed position. This mount shall then be housed within a graduated mount capable of being rotated 180 . In addition, the following components may be used: g) Full-wave plate, having a retardation of565nm which produces, with white light, a violet-red colour. It shall be

30、 housed in a rotatable mount capable of being locked in a fixed position. h) Telescope, i.e.a short-focus telescope having a suitable magnifying power over the usable focusing range in case of parallax-free light passing close to the edge of the glass body. i) Immersion cell, non-birefringent, for t

31、esting samples and optical elements having non-parallel or unpolished surfaces. The immersion cell shall contain a non-birefringent fluid which closely matches the index of refraction of the specimen glass. It is possible to build up a reversed set de Snarmont compensator with the light source at th

32、e position of the viewer (see Figure 2) and the viewer looking at the polarizer. 4.2.2 Adjustment of the polarimeter The polarimeter shall be adjusted so that the45 line on the polarizer is parallel to the edge of the sample. The analyser shall be rotated without the full-wave plate and the quarter-

33、wave plate to zero-position to produce homogeneous darkness. Finally, the quarter-wave plate shall be adjusted to maximum darkness through rotation and fixed in position. In case of using a full-wave plate to help in determination of tensile or compressive stress at the edge, the full-wave plate sha

34、ll be adjusted to maximum darkness in the case of monochromatic light. Switch to a white light source with the full-wave plate interference-colour red-violet (“first order red”). The sensitivity in compensating of very little brightening, caused by small birefringence, or small path length, in the g

35、lass body depends on the surface polishing and on the quality of polarizer, analyser and quarter-wave plate. Best results are obtained only with parallax-free long distance optics using the short-focus telescope. Figure 1 Principal stresses shown in a rectangular plateISO11455:1995(E) BSI 02-2000 3

36、5 Test samples The test samples should be of simple geometrical shapes, e.g.rotationally symmetrical, rectangularly cut plates and blocks, and equilateral, rectangular triangles. The test samples should have two opposite planeparallel polished surfaces. For these test samples, apply the normal test

37、procedure. In case of test samples with non-planeparallel and/or unpolished surfaces, use the immersion cell see4.2.1 i). Examples of test samples with polished surfaces and measuring points are given in Figure 3. The test samples shall be held in isothermal conditions at room temperature to reach a

38、n equilibrium temperature before and during measurement. 6 Procedure 6.1 Place the test sample so that the principal stress direction lies at45 to the oscillating plane of the light. In this way, the oscillating components in the direction of the principal stresses 1and 2have the same amplitude but

39、a different optical path length, %s, when leaving the test sample (elliptical polarized light). The point of birefringence measurement shall be close to the edge of the test sample, at a distance of approximately5% of the diameter of the width from the edge. 6.2 The tangent plane at the measuring po

40、int for round test samples shall lie at45 to the polarizer. For rectangular cross-sections and right-angled triangular cross-sections, the point of measurement shall be as shown in Figure 3. 6.3 Determine the light path by measuring the thickness of the test sample at the measuring point to1%. Figur

41、e 2 Test arrangement as described by de Snarmont and Friedel, including the specimenISO11455:1995(E) 4 BSI 02-2000 6.4 Rotate the analyser until the path difference is compensated, this means until the maximum darkness has occurred at the selected point of measurement. During passage through the qua

42、rter-wave plates, linearly polarized light is produced, whose plane of oscillation is rotated relative to the original plane of the polarizer by an angle proportional to the optical path difference. Note the angle at this position. The sign of the angle() depends on the sense (compression or tension

43、) of the principal stress difference (see6.5). Repeat the measurement for further measuring points (Figure 3). 6.5 For information on the sign of the stress close to the edge of the test sample, switch to the white light source by taking out the monochromatic filter and putting in the full-wave plat

44、e. Colourless brightening caused by minor path differences (smaller than half wavelength) appear in the well-known sequence of white light interference colours from red-violet to blue or yellow in the other direction. The determination of tension or compression can be made by comparison to single-ax

45、is prestressed rods or test discs. Using the full-wave plate, the analyser shall be in zero-position. NOTE 3The change of colour depends on the orientation of the principal stress cross in the test sample to the polarizing direction. NOTE 4For glasses with negative stress optical coefficients (for i

46、nstance glasses with a mass fraction of PbO of more than75%), interference colours will be reversed from the stress correlate determined with prestressed rods or test discs of glass with positive (normal) stress optical coefficients. Another way to determine the sign of the stress is to introduce a

47、point-like force on the test specimen leading to regions of known stress orientations. 6.6 The compensation range given by the procedure described by de Snarmont and Friedel is limited to a maximum retardation of one wavelength(180 ). If the path-difference exceeds one wavelength, the interference l

48、ines shall be counted starting with the neutral black line as zero which has to be determined previously with the white light source (without the monochromatic filter). The visible region beyond the highest coloured line (after switching to monochromatic light, it is a black line) shall be compensat

49、ed in accordance with6.4 and shall be added to the already counted wavelengths. 7 Expression of results For each measuring point, calculate the birefringence according to the following equation: Figure 3 Examples of test samples, including possible measuring points . . .
