Purpose: The aim of the paper is to demonstrate a laser method of multicrystalline silicon texturization. This means creating a roughened surface so that incident light may have a larger probability of being adsorbed into the solar cell. It was demonstrated, that laser processing is very promising technique for texturing multicrystalline silicon independent on crystallographic orientation of grains compared to conventional texturing methods. Design/methodology/approach: The topography of laser textured surfaces were investigated using ZEISS SUPRA 25 scanning electron microscope and LSM 5 Pascal ZEISS confocal laser scanning microscope. The reflectance of produced textures was measured by Perkin-Elmer Lambda spectrophotometer with an integrating sphere. Electrical parameters of manufactured solar cells were characterized by measurements of I-V illuminated characteristics under standard AM 1.5 radiation. Findings: The texturing of multicrystalline silicon surface using Nd:YAG laser makes it possible to increase absorption of the incident solar radiation. Laser processing is a promising method for texturization of multicrystalline silicon compared to conventional texturing methods applied in used technology of solar cells. Research limitations/implications: Laser processing introduce into the bulk of material some unwanted effects, having detrimental influence on the main parameters of processed silicon wafers. Solar cells manufactured from laser-textured multicrystalline silicon wafers demonstrate worse electrical performance than cells manufactured from the non-textured wafers after saw damage removal as well as wafers textured by etching in alkaline solutions. Chemical etching by means of potassium alkali made it possible to increase cell efficiency. Originality/value: Laser texturing has been shown to have great potential as far as its implementatnion into industrial manufacturing process of solar cell is concerned.

Purpose: The aim of this work was to improve the surface layer cast magnesium alloy EN-MCMgAl6Zn1 by laser surface treatment. The purpose of this work was also to determine the laser treatment parameter. Design/methodology/approach: The laser treatment of an EN-MCMgAl6Zn1 magnesium alloy with alloying WC powders was carried out using a high power diode laser (HDPL). The resulting microstructure in the modified surface layer was examinated using scanning electron microscopy. Phase composition was determined by the X-ray diffraction method using the XPert device. The measurements of microhardness of the modified surface layer was also studied. Findings: The morphology of the alloyed zone are dendrites. Microhardness of laser surface melted layer was significantly improved as compared to alloy without laser treatment. Research limitations/implications: This investigation presents different speed rates feed by one process laser power and in this research was used one powder with the particle size over 5µm. Practical implications: The results obtained in this investigation were promising to compared other conventional processes. High Power Diode Laser can be used as an economical substitute of Nd:YAG and CO2 to improve the surface magnesium alloy by feeding the carbide particles. Originality/value: The originality of this work is applying of High Power Diode Laser for alloying of magnesium alloy using hard particles like tungsten carbide.

Purpose: The purpose of this paper is modification of the surface layer of the Ti6Al4V titanium alloy microstructure and properties by laser remelting in nitrogen atmosphere. Design/methodology/approach: Laser treatment was performed on the samples in stream of nitrogen. Microstructure of laser treated layer was investigated by using Epiphot 300 optical microscope and Novascan 30 scanning electron microscope. Phase composition was determined using X-ray diffractometry. The roughness of surface of treated material was examined using topography scanning system T 8000 made by Hommelwerke GMBH. The Vickers hardness under load of 1.96 N was measured on the cross sections of surface layer. The wear properties of alloyed zone were tested on the testing machine T 08M using ‘pin on disc’ test. Findings: Laser remelting process has produced a surface layer consists of hard ceramics particles of TiN and Ti2N phases spaced in martensitic matrix. The hardness of surface layer increases clearly in comparison with untreated alloy due to formation of TiN and Ti2N particles and depends on the volume fraction of nitrides. Their maximum value of the hardness (1500 HV 0.2) occurs on the surface of laser treated zone. Wear resistance of laser nitrided layer increases considerably in relation to base alloy. Research limitations/implications: Research range was limited to microstructure, phase composition, hardness, fractography and wear resistance investigations. To estimate the influence of the laser nitriding process on corrosion resistance of the layer additional examinations will be performed in future research. Practical implications: Laser remelting of titanium alloy in nitrogen atmosphere makes possible to obtain coatings composed of ceramic particles spaced in metallic matrix characterised by high hardness and wear resistance. Originality/value: The range of investigation included microstructure, phase composition, hardness as well as fractographic estimation and wear properties enables analysis of laser nitriding process efficienty.

Zanieczyszczeniem powierzchni nazywamy substancję znajdującą się na powierzchni, która ze względów technologicznych lub ochrony środowiska jest niepożądana i powinna zostać usunięta. Zanieczyszczenie może mieć rozmiary molekularne (np. zaadsorbowane jony, cząsteczki lub atomy gazów, lub powierzchniowe domieszki np. metali lub węgla), lecz z reguły stanowi ono odrębną fazę (ciekłą lub stałą) znajdującą się na powierzchni oczyszczanej w postaci cząstek o różnych rozmiarach mniej lub bardziej ciągłego filmu.
