Handbook of Advanced Nondestructive Evaluation

Abstract

Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is a noninvasive, high-resolution, interferometric imaging modality using near-infrared light to acquire cross sections and three-dimensional images of the subsurface microstructure of samples. Because of the rapid enhancement of OCT with respect to acquisition speed and axial resolution over the past years, OCT is becoming more and more attractive for applications in nondestructive testing and evaluation. In this chapter, a brief introduction to the technique and the instrumentation is first given, followed by an overview of application of OCT in NDE reported so far.
