DEFECT CHARACTERIZATION USING TWO-DIMENSIONAL ARRAYS

Authors:

Abstract
2D arrays are able to ‘view’ a given defect from a range of angles leading to the possibility of obtaining richer characterization detail than possible with 1D arrays. In this paper a quantitative comparison of 2D arrays with different element layouts is performed. A technique for extracting the scattering matrix of a defect from the raw 2D array data is also presented. The method is tested on experimental data for characterization of various volumetric defects.
