This method effectively enhances the S-wave mode conversion signal’s signal-to-noise ratio (SNR). An experimental system using noncontact laser ultrasonic B-scanning is constructed. The system employs fixed excitation and detection methods. Experimental verification is conducted to accurately detect and identify hole flaws inside steel samples, considering variations in burial depths and diameters.

Simulations and experimental tests are conducted to assess the probe performances in detecting microcracks. Notably, the detection of cracks of 10 × 20 × 30 μm is achieved by leveraging the shift in resonance frequency. However, the impedance mismatch between the VNA and the probe presents a challenge to the system sensitivity. To address this limitation, a modification is proposed, introducing a surface-adjustable capacitance to the microstrip. This enhancement improves the probe sensitivity and enables full adjustability during measurements. An improvement of 27.13 dB in the reflection parameter is obtained.
