Abstract

ABSTRACTTraditional coil-based eddy-current sensors are severely limited in their ability to detect small buried defects, defects under fasteners and deeply buried cracks and corrosion. TPL has developed eddy-current sensors and arrays based on the use of Giant Magnetoresistance (GMR) sensor elements. GMR offers high sensitivity, very wide bandwidth and low noise from DC to over 1 GHz. Coupled with the ability to fabricate GMR sensors with micron-level dimensions, these new eddy-current sensors offer an ideal technology for inspections requiring high spatial resolution and low-frequency, deeply-penetrating fields.
