Biomedical optical metrology laboratory

Description:

In this lab different mechanical parameters are studied using optical nondestructive testing in engineering and biological samples. Internal structure, displacements, shape, strain concentrators, residual stress are analyzed in controlled and non-repeatable tests.

Regular tests involve: compression, tension, vibration, impact, stiffness, bending and standardized deformations.

Techniques:

• Electronic speckle pattern interferometry (ESPI)
• Digital holographic interferometry (DHI)
• Holographic microscopy
• Optical coherence tomography (OCT)
• Optical coherence microscopy (OCM)
• Digital image processing

Equipment:

• CW lasers: 10, 1.2, 0.1 y 0.05 Watts
• HD High speed, sCMOS, CCD and CMOS cameras
• Spectral optical coherence tomography system
• Cold and hot mounting metallographic equipment
• Modular microscopic systems
• Leika optical microscope
• x y and z positioning systems for remote scanning
• Holographic tables
• Control and automatization hardware
