Enhancing Anticorrosion Resistance of Aluminum Alloys Using Femtosecond Laser-Based Surface Structuring and Coating

We report a robust two-step method for developing adherent and anticorrosive molybdenum (Mo)-based coatings over an aluminum (Al) 6061 alloy substrate using a femtosecond (fs) laser. The fs laser nanostructuring of Al 6061 alloy in air gives rise to regular arrays of microgrooves exhibiting superhyd...
