Abstract

In this work we discuss the applications of confocal microscopy to non-destructive materials testing. After the introduction we briefly consider some important theoretical aspects of the microscope. We then move to discuss the possible imaging modes available for both surface and bulk microscopy. We present experimental images obtained with various types of imaging modes. Finally, an experimental confirmation for the theoretically predicted contrast mechanism is discussed.
