The effects on the surface of a nickel superalloy that are caused by the action of pulsed radiation from an Nd:YAG laser with a wavelength in the ultraviolet range (0.355 μm) and a pulse duration of 10 ns are studied. The surface layer is found to rise in a subthreshold irradiation regime. Traces of...
