Overview
abstract
An ultrasonic technique for the simultaneous measurement of the thickness and wavespeed of a thin coating on a thick substrate is developed. Transfer functions have been derived. A systematic analysis of the sensitivity of the transfer functions to the coating properties has been carried out. This technique is independent of the substrate thickness.
