Abstract

A method for inspecting a heatsink in which a heat dissipation layer is formed on a surface of a substrate formed by casting, includes shooting the heat dissipation layer by image pickup means in a state where residual heat transferred from the substrate to the heat dissipation layer remains and thereby acquiring image data representing a temperature distribution on a surface of the heat dissipation layer, the heat dissipation layer being formed by performing a film-forming process on the surface of the substrate where residual heat that is generated when the substrate is cast remains, the image pickup means being configured to receive an emission of light from molecules of the heat dissipation layer.
