Laser coating of a Zr-based metallic glass on an aluminum substrate

Roland Logé, Stefano Mischler, Jamasp Jhabvala, Navid Sohrabi, Alejandro Roda Buch

Cladding of a Zr-based metallic glass (MG) on an aluminum substrate was conducted using a layer-wise laser additive manufacturing (AM) method, leading to relative densities higher than 99%. The thickness of the cladding was about 300 μm. The effect of lase ...

Bistable Puncturing Tool for Retinal Vein Cannulation

Simon Nessim Henein, Yves Bellouard, Charles Baur, Lisa Anaïs Jeanne Bonnefoy

An innovative surgical tool prototype dedicated to safe puncturing has been developed for the treatment of retinal vein occlusions (RVOs). The tool is manufactured monolithically by femtolaser printing in fused silica. It consists of a programmable bistabl ...

Ultrafast carbothermal reduction of silica to silicon using a CO2 laser beam

Jaeki Jeong

We report the extraction of silicon via a carbothermal reduction process using a CO2 laser beam as a heat source. The surface of a mixture of silica and carbon black powder became brown after laser beam irradiation for a few tens of seconds, and clear peak ...

Impact of oxygen content in powders on the morphology of the laser molten tracks in preparation for additive manufacturing of silicon

Patrik Willi Hoffmann, Lucas Güniat

Powder additive pulsed Nd:YAG laser (wavelength 1064 nm), with the aim of preparing AM of such material. The influence of oxygen content in the initial silicon powders on the continuous tracks morphology was investigated. It was found that the initial oxyg ...

A Numerical Model For The Simulation Of Shallow Laser Surface Melting

Marco Picasso, Alexandre Caboussat, Alexandre Masserey, Julien Hess

We present a multi-physics model for the approximation of the coupled system formed by the temperature-dependent Navier-Stokes equations with free surfaces. The main application is the industrial process of shallow laser surface melting (SLSM), for laser p ...
