Nondestructive Tomographic Imaging of Rust with Rapid THz Time-Domain Spectroscopy

In this study, we developed a rapid nondestructive tool for testing rust spread in a metal covered by a paint layer by using a THz time-domain spectroscopy system at a speed of 100 Hz/pixel. Time-of-flight imaging helps identify rust formation by exclusively obtaining the reflection from the steel b...
