Near field enhancements from angled surface defects : a comparison of scanning laser source and scanning laser detection techniques [PDF]
Enhancement of the Rayleigh wave signal amplitude at a surface defect, due to interference of incident, reflected and mode converted waves, has been reported by several authors, and it has been suggested that this could be used as a fingerprint of the ...
