Test piece for the assessment of optical contact bonding force (left). The dimension of each component plate is 20 mm × 21 mm × 5 mm, and three plates are optically in contact with each other. The middle plate is vertically shifted so that forces can be applied to this plate to generate shear stress on both of the optically contacted interfaces (right)
