Detection of Incipient Metal Corrosion and Cracking Beneath Paints Using Near Infrared Ultrafast Photonic Techniques

Abstract

During the grant period 9/15/00 - 3/14/04, our group has achieved significant progress in the corrosion and crack detection area using NIR and mid-IR imaging techniques 1-Sunder the support of an AFOSR grant of F49620-OO-1-0378 (CUNY RF 47435-00-01). The program results in a leverage grant supported by NYSTAR, under which a working prototype mid-IR imaging unit was developed and is being commercialized by Lockheed Martin Corporation (LMC) - see the attached LMC data sheet. p11/0
