Abstract: A defect detection method includes: a step of irradiating an object with a pulsed laser beam to continuously generate ultrasonic waves in the object; and a step of detecting the presence or absence of an internal defect of the object on the basis of the presence or absence of resonance of the ultrasonic waves occurring between a surface of the object and the internal defect.
