stress-optic law [′stres ′äp·tik ‚lȯ]

(optics)

In a transparent, isotropic plate subjected to a biaxial stress field, the relative retardationR_tbetween the two components produced by temporary double refraction is equal toCt(p-q), which in turn is equal tonλ;Cis the stress-optic coefficient,tthe plate thickness,pandqthe principal stresses,nthe number of fringes which have passed the point during application of the load, and λ the wavelength of the light.
