    Presented at ICALEO 2007

    Ni-based superalloy films were deposited on single crystal Ni-based superalloy substrates from the target with congruent alloy components by pulsed laser deposition (PLD) technique. In this study, substrate temperature, pulse energy, pulse repetition rate and deposition time were selected as independent variables to investigate the effect of each process parameter on epitaxial growth behaviour of the Ni superalloy films. Microstructure and growth behaviour ...
