Abstract
This paper reports laser remelting of crystalline Cu based alloys in order to produce amorphous layer on the surface. The as prepared Cu based master alloy ingots were imbedded in a metallic sinking with Wood metal to assure the good thermal conductivity during the laser treatment. The laser remelting of a thin surface layer and a subsequent rapid cooling of it was performed using impulse and continuous mode of Nd:YAG laser. In respectively the impulse mode the laser power and the interaction time were 1.5; 2 kW and 20÷100 ms. In the continuous mode the laser power was 2 kW, and the laser scan speed was 80÷120 mm/s. The characterization of the microstructure of surface layer was performed by XRD, scanning electron microscopy and microhardness measurements.
