Laser welding has the advantage of high welding speed and Provides low heat distortion Thus laser welding is a very attractive process for joining thin steel sheet and surface treated steel sheet. And the major item in market for surface treated steel sheet is zinc coated steel. However. the laser welding of zinc coated steel is very difficult because of its low boiling point. Compared with zinc, on the other hand, aluminum has a high boiling point. Thus, laser weldability of aluminized steel is better than that of zinc coated steel. Moreover aluminized steel sheet is a material with excellent heat resistance, thermal reflection and corrosion resistance. The results of laser weldability of the aluminized steel for the full penetration welding will be described in this paper We focused on the investigation of the phenomenons caused by coating condition and behavior of aluminum in weld.

The output characteristics of a ceramic Nd:YAC laser pumped by a fiber-coupled laser diode was investigated. An efficiency and a slope efficiency of 33.8 % and 39.3 % respectively were obtained, under an output coupler reflectance of 90.4 %. The laser power has decreased suddenly due to the thermal tensing effect more than 6 W pumping powers.

Ceramic-coated anilox roll for printing is resistant to corrosion and wear, and hence has enhanced life and quality. Laser engraving is used typically for machining holes to store ink in this roll. Since engraved hole size and shape are directly related to laser processing parameters, it is necessary to know the rela- tionships among these parameters. In this study, the parameters for engraving of ;oasma sprayed ceramic coatings with Nd:YAG laser were studied. Relationships between hole shape and processing parameters were analyzed. Cr$_{2}$O$_{3}$ceramic was found to be most suitable for Nd:YAG laser engraving. It was found that hole depth can be increased by using higher energy pulses. Effect of using different assistant gases was small to the final results. For better results, it was suggested to use a very stable laser with shorter pulses and higher pulse energy.

The crack behavior in the ceramic Nd:YAG at a laser-diode end-pumped Nd:YAG ceramic laser was investigated. The fracture critical temperature difference of the ceramic Nd:YAG is about $355^{\circ}C$. The fracture of the 2 at% and the 4 at.% ceramic Nd:YAG occurred more than 14.9 W and 6.9 W pump powers, respectively, under lasing conditions.

Laser welding of ASTM no. 1060 Al plate with a pulsed Nd: YAG laser of 200W average power was performed for end capping of KMRR nuclear fuel elements In this research, we performed basic welding experiments. Firstly, laser output parameters which affect laser welding parameters were studied by changing laser input parameters for effective welding of 1060 Al plates. We found that laser power density and pulse energy are important parameters for smooth bead shape. Secondly, welding parameters which affect weld width-to-depth ratio were studied by changing power density and pulse energy, shielding gas, and defocusing. We found that power density must be higher than 0.3 Mw/cm$^{2}$ pulse energy must be higer than 3 J. travel speed must not exceed 200mm/sec, laser focus must be existed beneath 2-3mm from plate surface and helium is proper shielding gas. Thirdly, we studied the weld defects of Al-1060 such as crack and porosity in lap-joint welding. We designed new welding geometry for crack free welding of Al-1060 plates, and obtained crack free weldment but with lack of fusion. However, with Ti, Zr grain refiner elements, we can weld Al plates without solidification hot crack. Finally, we studied the origin of porosity by changing shielding gas. And we found that porosity was resulted from entrapment of shielding gas by the collapsing keyhole.
