introduction: the aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of dental surface treatment with erbium-doped yttrium aluminum garnet(er: yag), neodymium-doped yttrium aluminium garnet(nd: yag) and carbon dioxide laser  (co 2 ) lasers and sodium ascorbate to recently home bleached enamel by scanning electron microscope (sem). methods: thirty extracted human third molars were selected for this in...

This article studies the particle temperature distribution depending on the laser radiation power and the particle’s trajectory and velocity. The uneven heating of particles moving in the laser radiation field is identified. The regimes of laser heating without melting, with partial melting, and with complete particle melting are considered.

Two melting mechanisms are reproduced and quantified for superheating and melting of Al nanolayer irradiated by picoand femtosecond laser using the advanced phase-field approach coupled with mechanics and a two-temperature model. At heating rates Q 79:04 K/ps induced by picosecond laser, two-sided barrierless surface melting forms two solid-melt interfaces, which meet near the center of a sampl...

Microstructural changes during laser welding and laser surface treatment has been regarded by many researchers. Most researches have focused on studying the effect of various process parameters on the size and microstructure of the heat affected zone. But some studies show that the initial microstructure of the base metal can also affect the heat affected zone dimensions and final microstructur...

Industrial applications require parts of components with specific surface properties such are good corrosion resistance, wear resistance and hardness. Alloys with those properties are usually very expensive and there is a great interest in reducing the cost of components for fulfilling these requirements. In this sense, laser surface processing has been used as a cost-effective technique to imp...

As application of re-activation of backside on power device Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor (IGBT), laser annealing was employed to irradiate amorphous silicon substrate, and resistivities were measured using four point probe measurement. For annealing the amorphous silicon two lasers were used at wavelength of visible green (532 nm) together with Infrared (793 nm). While the green laser effi...
