In this paper, we evaluate a novel flaw-detection technique for metallic surfaces based on the use of phase-type blazed gratings. Transparent blazed gratings were prepared by the soft nanoimprint method involving the transfer of a template (a reflective grating structure used for spectroscopy) onto silicone rubber. The blazed gratings were then integrated into an imaging system to observe the reflective metal sample. Due to the low-pass-filtering properties of the gratings, the captured image was notably blurred. This characteristic aids in flaw detection on metallic surfaces because the captured image is adequate to distinguish flaws in the targeted area on the basis of the texture of the rough surface, including any other structures that were unintended. The use of double-sided gratings with crossing grating vectors was found to be efficient for homogenous low-pass filtering. Such flaw-detection techniques are expected to be useful for conducting quality inspections of rolled steel plates since the surface contains both a rough surface and undesirable flaws.
