In situmonitoring is critical to the increasing adoption of laser powder bed fusion (LPBF) and laser welding by industry for manufacture of complex metallic components. Optical coherence tomography (OCT), an interferometric imaging technique adapted from medical applications, is now widely used foroperandomonitoring of morphology during high-power laser material processing. However, even in stable processing regimes, some OCT depth measurements from the keyhole (vapor cavity formed at laser beam spot) appear too shallow or too deep when compared toex situmeasurements of weld depth. It has remained unclear whether these outliers are due to imaging artifacts, multiple scattering of the imaging beam within the keyhole, or real changes in keyhole depth, making it difficult to accurately extract weld depth and determine error bounds. To provide a definitive explanation, we combine inline coherent imaging (ICI), a type of OCT, with synchrotron X-ray imaging for simultaneous,operandomonitoring of the full 2-dimensional keyhole profile at high-speed (280 kHz and 140 kHz, respectively). Even in a highly turbulent pore-generation mode, the depth measured with ICI closely follows the keyhole depth extracted from radiography (>80% within ± 14 µm). Ray-tracing simulations are used to confirm that the outliers in ICI depth measurements (that significantly disagree with radiography) primarily result from multiple reflections of the imaging light (57%). Synchrotron X-ray imaging also enables tracking of bubble and pore formation events. Pores are generated during laser welding when the sidewalls of the keyhole rapidly (>10 m/s) collapse inwards, pinching off a bubble from the keyhole root and resulting in a rapid decrease in keyhole depth. Evidence of bubble formation can be found in ICI depth profiles alone, as rapid depth changes exhibit moderate correlation with bubble formation events (0.26). This work moves closer to accurate, localized defect detection during laser welding and LPBF using ICI.
