Subsurface Defect Localization by Structured Heating Using Laser Projected Photothermal Thermography
Erik Thiel 1, Mathias Ziegler 1

This method aims at locating vertical subsurface defects. Here, we couple a laser with a spatial light modulator and trigger its video input to heat a sample surface deterministically with two anti-phased modulated lines while acquiring highly resolved thermal images. The defect position is retrieved from evaluating thermal wave interference minima.
