Abstract	Ultrasonic diffraction pattern at a crack tip and crack depth sizing based on the diffraction are studied by using laser‐generated bulk waves. Directivity patterns oriented essentially along the normal for the diffracted longitudinal wave and essentially at 45 (deg) for the diffracted shear wave for any incident angles is obtained. A laser‐ultrasonic system combined with time‐of‐flight (TOFD) analysis is produced and demonstrates accurate crack sizing on an artificial slot having a variable depth from 0 mm to 10 mm. An improvement of signal‐to‐noise ratio by split spectrum processing (SSP) is also suggested.
