  • Publication number: 20110069313
    Abstract: Light from a light source device (4) is polarized through a polarizer (5) and is caused to impinge obliquely on an object (W) to be inspected. The resulting scattered light (SB) is received by a CCD imaging device (7) having an element (9) for separating scattered light disposed in a dark field. Component light intensities are worked out for an obtained P-polarized component image and an obtained S-polarized component image and a polarization direction is determined as a ratio of them. The component light intensities and the polarization directions are determined from images obtained by imaging of the light scattering entities in a state where stress is applied to the object to be inspected and in a state where stress is not applied thereto. The component light intensities and the polarization directions are compared with predetermined threshold values.
