Abstract:
The technology disclosed in this application provide for non-destructive and non-contact optical characterization of fiber reinforced plastic composites and other structures under test based on optical transmission scanning.

Claim (Index 18):
A method for performing non-destructive evaluation (NDE) of a target sample on optical transmission measurements, comprising:\n directing probe light to transmit through a target sample to produce transmitted probe light; using an optical detector to receive the transmitted probe light and to measure optical transmission of the target sample; scanning a relative position between the target sample and the probe light to direct the probe light to transmit through the target sample at different locations of the target sample to obtain measurements of optical transmission of the target sample at the different locations as a result of the scanning; controlling optical focusing of the probe light along a propagation path of the probe light at the target sample during the scanning; and processing measurements of optical transmission of the target sample at the different locations and different optical focusing to extract information on a 3-dimensional structural pattern distribution in the target sample in two directions caused by the scanning and in the propagation path of the probe light at the target sample caused by the optical focusing.
