Development and Optical-Mechanical Characterization of Transparent Fiber-Reinforced Optomechanical Composites
Supervisor: Dr. Arcan F. DERİCİOĞLU
The composites, in which a compromise between the resulting optical and mechanical properties is aimed, were termed as Optomechanical Composites. The purpose of this study is to develop a transparent fiber-reinforced optomechanical composite, where the optical and mechanical properties of the resulting composite is optimized through the use of an appropriate fiber coating revealing high optical and mechanical compatibility both with the fiber and the matrix.
