Abstract
Laser glazing as a method for reproducibly and controllably attaining rapid solidification and solid-state cooling of metals and alloys has been studied extensively in recent years.1-3 Varying the laser power density and interaction time the products of laser glazing include wide spectra of structure states: supersaturated solid solutions; homogeneous microcrystalline structures; fully eutectic microstructures or amorphous structures.4 We have studied using rapid cooling to produce such structures as the laser glazing of metal coatings on steels to improve the hardness and wear-resistance characteristics of steels.
