Laser surface modification of magnesium

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

Laser surface treatment of materials has found increased application in the areas of hardening, alloying, cladding, and welding. Lasers offer the unique ability to heat (and subsequently cool) the surface of a given substrate with extremely high rates up to 1010°/s The surface after treatment is often of novel composition and structure. Work on the pulsed laser irradiation of thin metal film coated substrates of magnesium is described.
