Welding characteristics of austienite 304 stainless and SM45C using a continuous wave Nd:YAG laser n experimentally investigated Laser beam welding is increasingly being used in welding of structural steels. The laser welding process is one of the most advanced manufacturing technologies owing to its high speed and deep penetration. The thermal cycles associated with laser welding are generally much Inter than those involved in conventional welding processes, leading to a rather small weld zone. Experiments are performed for 304 stainless steel plates changing several process parameter such as laser power, welding speed, shielding gas flow rate, presence of surface pollution, with fixed or variable gap and misalignment between the similar and dissimilar and plates, etc. The Nd:YAG laser welding process is one of the most advanced manufacturing technologies owing to its high speed and penetration. This paper describes the weld ability of SM45C carbon steel for machine structural use by Nd:YAG laser. The follow conclusions can be drawn that laser power and welding speed have a pronounced effect on size and shape of the fusion zone. Increase in welding speed resulted in an increase in weld depth/aspect ratio and hence a decrease in the fusion zone size. The penetration depth increased with the increase in laser power.

The FPCB is used for electronic products such as LCD display. The process of manufacturing FPCB includes a cutting process, in which each single FPCB is cut and separated from the panel where a series of FPCBs are arrayed. The most-widely used cutting method is the mechanical punching, which has the problem of creating burrs and cracks. In this paper, the cutting characteristics of the FPCB have been experimented using Nd:YAG DPSS UV laser as a way of solving this problem. To maximize the industrial application of this laser cutting process, test samples of the multilayered FPCB have been chosen as it is actually needed in industry. The cutting area of the FPCB has four different types of layer structure. First, to cut the test sample, the threshold laser cut-off fluence has been found. Various combinations of laser and process parameters have been made to supply the acquired laser cut-off fluence. The cutting characteristics in terms of the variation of the parameters are analyzed. The laser and process parameters are optimized, in order to maximize the cutting speed and to reach the best quality of the cutting area. The laser system for the process automation has been also developed.

The purpose of this study was to examine dentin surface changes of extracted sound third molar specimens which were etched with 10% maleic acid and irradiated at $7-140J/cm^2$ with $CO_2$ and at $156-280J/cm^2$ with Nd:YAG laser. The results were as follows. 1. Dentin surfaces etched with 10% maleic acid and then irradiated at below of $42J/cm^2$ with $CO_2$ laser showed the retentive morphology for resin restoration. 2. Dentin surfaces irradiated at below of $42J/cm^2$ with $CO_2$ laser showed the increased acid-resistance. 3. Dentin surfaces irradiated at $218-280J/cm^2$ with Nd:YAG laser showed the retentive morphology. 4. Dentin surfaces irradiated at $218-280J/cm^2$ with Nd:YAG laser and etched 10% maleic acid and then $218-280J/cm^2$ with Nd:YAG laser showed the increased acid-resistance.

In the midst of increasing importance of modern cultural assets, especially, most modern bronze objects are exposed to outdoor environment, and as the objects are corroded steadily due to environmental factors the objects lost their original colors on the surface. We performed artificial patinas on the bronze sample per each color of red, black and green and checked cuprite and tenorite which are detected from actual bronze corrosion by analyzing the components. In addition, we applied the existing corrosion removal methods of grinder and sand blaster on a similar sample of bronze mirror per injection pressure and performed comparative analysis on the result with Nd:YAG laser. As a result of Nd:YAG laser cleaning artificial patina from bronze samples, all of the patinas were removed by laser wavelength 1064 nm better than 532 nm. Upon applying to a similar sample of bronze mirror, the artificial patina could be selectively removed from substrates without surface damage when Nd:YAG laser was conducted other than the existing removal method, and so it showed the possibility of application.

비평면 고리형 공진기에서의 내부 공진기 주파수 배가를 이용한 단일 모드 Nd:YAG 레이저를 제작하였다. 비평면 고리형 공진기는 두 개의 구면경과 Nd:YAG 결정, KIP 결정으로 구성되어 있다. Nd:YAG 결정의 양단면은 상대적인 비틀림 각을 갖고 있으면서 브루스터 각이 되도록 연마되었으며, 비틀림 각에 의해 형성된 비평면 고리 공진기가 가역적인 편광 회전기 역할을, 자기장이 가해진 Nd:YAC 결정 자체가 비가역적 편광 회전기 역할을, 브루스터 각을 갖고 있는 양단면이 편광자 역할을 각각 담당하여 전체적으로 광 다이오드를 형성하고 있다. 이러한 구조에서 단 방향 발진이 일어날 수 있는 비틀림 각이 이론적으로 추정되었다. 1.2 W, 809 nm 다이오드 레이저로 펌핑하여 532 nm 파장에서 22 ㎽의 단 방향, 단일 모드 출력을 얻었으며, 이것은 약 1.8%의 변환 효율에 해당한다.

This work was carried out to investigate the welding behavior of thin A3003 Al alloy sheets by Nd : YAG laser beam. Considering bead shape and mechanical properties, the laser pulse shapes selected were two kinds of 2-division and 3-division by varying power level and pulse duration. In order to obtain optimum conditions, the factorial design method and central composite design method were applied. Tensile test, optical microscopy, micro hardness test and TEM analysis were performed. Due to the annealing caused by thermal effect during laser welding, precipitates were coarsended. The HAZ was softened and failed during tensile test. The hardness of HAZ was lower than that of base metal, since the heat input relieved the work hardening effect and caused grain growth.
