Abstract

The tantalum and titanium plates were treated by pulsed, high power CO₂ laser in the pressurized atmospheres of N₂ and O₂. Studies performed by the optical microscopy, microhardness measurements, and the auger electron spectroscopy revealed: (1) topographic modification of the surface caused by the temperature field; (2) metal hardening, caused by the laser shock; and (3) alloying/cladding, caused by the chemical reaction between the metal surface and the gaseous atmosphere.
