Am. Chaplanov et An. Shibko, THE EFFECT OF LASER-RADIATION ON OXIDATIO N-KINETICS OF TITANIUM FILMS UNDER THERMAL-TREATMENT, Kvantovaa elektronika, 20(2), 1993, pp. 191-193
Laser irradiation of heated materials stimulates redox reactions proce
eding depending on the incident radiation power and the material tempe
rature. It is found that besides recrystallization processes, irradiat
ion of titanium films with a photon flux at hv = 1.96 eV during vacuum
annealing stimulatesphotochemical processes of nonthermal nature.
