Abstract

Various techniques of laser glazing are presented. Rules are given for the choise of systems which are suitable for producing amorphous surface layers. Methods of demonstrating the existence of a truly amorphous layer are discussed. Two examples are given: I) electron beam glazing of Ni-Nb coated single crystals 2) laser beam glazing of Fe-B coated Fe-Cr-C cold working steel.
