Effect of orientation on the relative dispersion of PMDA‐ODA polyimide and polypropylene

Abstract: The relative dispersion of birefringence, Db, is determined for isotactic polypropylene and Kapton HA PMDA‐ODA polyimide films. Db is then used to identify the dependence of dispersion on the orientation of polymers and is interpreted in terms of fringe jumping. Optical relationships between the in‐plane birefringence and wavelength are formulated to predict the in‐plane birefringence of oriented Kapton HA PMDA‐ODA polyimide films at any wavelength. These relations can be used for the direct comparison of the … Show more

“…According to previous X‐ray diffraction measurements and structural refinement analysis,29, 30 BPDA‐PDA polyimide chains form crystals that are based on the orthorhombic crystal unit cell with a space group of Pba2. The diffraction peaks were indexed in accordance with the previous results 31. Five distinct (00 l ) peaks, which were not detected on the reflection pattern, appeared over the angle range of 10–48° (2θ) on the transmission pattern.…”

“…From the average of three readings for each sample, measured (uncorrected) retardation (Γ m ) was noted from the retardation tables supplied by the compensator manufacturer 32. To take into account the fringe jumping phenomenon that occurs in engineering polymers like PPS, corrected value of number of orders ( N d ) was calculated using the method as described by Cha and Samuels 33. To understand fringe jumping phenomena, readers may refer to the work of Faust and Marrinan 34…”

“…The 2010 model typically offers a routine ±0.0005 refractive‐index resolution for polyimide thin films. The refractive index in the film plane, n xy , was measured in the transverse electric (TE) mode, and n z was measured in the transverse magnetic (TM) mode as described elsewhere 5, 31–33. All measurements were performed using a cubic zirconia prism of n TE = n TM = 2.1677 at a wavelength of 632.8 nm.…”
