Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is a non-destructive subsurface tomography system based on low coherence interferometry. Non-invasive nature and high speed of acquisition of OCT make it possible to image relic and provide subsurface morphology visualization. Porcelain from Ding kiln of Northern Song dynasty is scanned and imaged to visualize the subsurface morphology of the surface glaze and core. Layer structures and interfaces can be visualized clearly from OCT images. The characteristics of the thickness of the glaze layer, bubbles and crystal particles in glaze, the penetration depth of OCT in porcelain are analyzed.
