Abstract
Improvement of mechanical, chemical and physical properties of metals without impairing the original properties of the bulk is required in many industry fields. We have developed a novel surface modification technique of stainless-steel (SUS) 304 using a KrF excimer laser and an ambient SiH4 gas, by which Si atoms are implanted and simultaneously deposited onto the SUS304.1-3 The specific process has been referred to as laser implant-deposition (LID). In the present paper, improvement of corrosion properties of the prepared samples against acid solutions is demonstrated. In addition, thermal stability of the properties is investigated.
