Knowing the contact forces and their statistical distributions inside a granular packing is a central question in granular physics. Measurement of contact force distributions and force chains till now have been possible only in 2D [1,2]. However, the physics is expected to be different inside 3D granular packings.

Towards this end, we have implemented a two photon spectroscopy technique, by harnessing the pressure dependent fluorescence property of ruby [3]. The technical challenges, introduced by the high refractive index (RI ~ 1.76) of ruby, are solved by designing a high numerical aperture (NA~1.4) objective lens and finding a RI matched light scattering free immersion liquid solution. The first proof of concept experimental results will be discussed.
