Non-destructive test on the size and depth of cracks has been required for the safety evaluation of structures. Ultrasonic method based on laser techniques is one of the most popular non-destructive methods which overwhelm PZT based tests. In the present paper, ultrasonic was generated by high powered Q switching Nd:YAG pulse laser. Experiments were carried out using Fabry-Perot interferometer which was intensively discussed in the present study.

This study examines a non-contact laser scanning-based ultrasound system, called an angular scan pulse-echo ultrasonic propagation imager (A-PE-UPI), that uses coincided laser beams for ultrasonic sensing and generation. A laser Doppler vibrometer is used for sensing, while a diode pumped solid state (DPSS) Q-switched laser is used for generation of thermoelastic waves. A high-speed raster scanning of up to 10-kHz is achieved using a galvano-motorized mirror scanner that allows for coincided sensing and for the generation beam to perform two-dimensional scanning without causing any harm to the surface under inspection. This process allows for the visualization of longitudinal wave propagation through-the-thickness. A pulse-echo ultrasonic wave propagation imaging algorithm (PE-UWPI) is used for on-the-fly damage visualization of the structure. The presented system is very effective for high-speed, localized, non-contact, and non-destructive inspection of aerospace structures. The system is tested on an aluminum honeycomb sandwich with disbonds and a carbon fiber-reinforced plastic (CFRP) honeycomb sandwich with a layer overlap. Inspection is performed at a 10-kHz scanning speed that takes 16 seconds to scan a $100{\times}100mm^2$ area with a scan interval of 0.25 mm. Finally, a comparison is presented between angular-scanning and a linear-scanning-based pulse-echo UPI system. The results show that the proposed system can successfully visualize defects in the inspected specimens.

Exploration in microelectromechanical systems(MEMS) and nanotechnology requires evaluation techniques suitable for sub-micron length scale so that thermal and mechanical properties of novel materials can be investigated for optimal design of miro/nanostructures. The ultrafast optical pump-probe technique provides a contact-free and non-destructive way to characterize nanoscale thin-films, and its ultrahigh temporal resolution enables the study of heat-transport phenomena down to a sub-picosecond regime. This paper reviews the principle of optical pump-probe technique and introduces its application to the area of micro/nano-NDE.

Ultrasonic propagation imaging (UPI) has shown great potential for detection of impairments in complex structures and can be used in wide range of non-destructive evaluation and structural health monitoring applications. The software implementation of such algorithms showed a tendency in time-consumption with increment in scan area because the processor shares its resources with a number of programs running at the same time. This issue was addressed by using field programmable gate arrays (FPGA) that is a dedicated processing solution and used for high speed signal processing algorithms. For this purpose, we need an independent and flexible block of logic which can be used with continuously evolvable hardware based on FPGA. In this paper, we developed an FPGA-based ultrasonic propagation imaging system, where FPGA functions for both data acquisition system and real-time ultrasonic signal processing. The developed UPI system using FPGA board provides better cost-effectiveness and resolution than digitizers, and much faster signal processing time than CPU which was tested using basic ultrasonic propagation algorithms such as ultrasonic wave propagation imaging and multi-directional adjacent wave subtraction. Finally, a comparison of results for processing time between a CPU-based UPI system and the novel FPGA-based system were presented to justify the objective of this research.

최근 투명 디스플레이 및 유연 소자의 활용도가 증가함에 따라 우수한 유연성과 강성을 갖는 폴리머 소재 기판의 사용이 증가하고 있다. 그러나 폴리머는 열에 취약하여 공정 중 온도 및 열 제어가 필수적이다. 이러한 폴리머 기판 활용의 단점을 해결하기 위해 본 연구에서는 레이저 기반의 선택적 가공 기술에 적용할 수 있는 폴리머 기판 내 레이저 가공영역의 온도 측정 시스템을 제안한다. 레이저 가공 영역의 국부적인 온도 변화 측정을 통해 폴리머 기판의 공정 조건을 최적화하는 가능성을 제시한다. 이를 위해 플랑크 흑체 복사 원리를 기반으로 한 PDPT(Photodiode based Planck Thermometry)를 설계 및 제작하여 레이저가 입사되는 영역의 온도를 측정하였다. PDPT는 비파괴/비접촉식 온도측정 시스템으로, 레이저가 입사되는 국부적인 온도 상승을 실시간으로 측정할 수 있다. 해당 시스템을 활용하여 폴리머 기판의 레이저 가공 공정에서 발생하는 가공영역의 온도 변화를 관측하였다. 본 연구 결과, 제안된 레이저 기반 온도측정 기술은 레이저 가공 공정 중 실시간 온도 측정이 가능하며, 이를 통해 최적의 생산 조건을 확립할 가능성을 보여주고 있다. 또한, 해당 기술은 열 제어가 필수적인 미세 레이저 가공 및 3차원 프린팅과 같은 다양한 레이저 기반 공정에 적용될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.
