Abstract
Laser-based ultrasonic measurement technique1,2,3 is expected as non-contact materials evaluation in hostile environment, and has several capabilities owing to the fact that it uses light beam. On the other hand, microscopic ultrasonic imaging systems such as a scanning acoustic microscope(SAM), scanning laser acoustic microscope(SLAM)4 and photo-acoustic microscope(PAM)5 are investigated for the evaluation of materials which are sensitive to micro defects as shown in the case of ceramics.
