Research interests
1. Preparation of nano-diamond by employing nanosecond laser.The method allows synthesizing ultrafine nanocrystalline particles continuously at the ambient temperature and normal pressure. The particle size is shown independent of laser energy, which is ultrafine and ranges in 2~6nm. The theoretical grown size of nano-diamonds is found in well agreement with the experiment results. Four kinds of production were found: nano-diamond, spherical carbon nano-particles, flocculent amorphous carbon and graphene nano-ribbon rolls. A solid-vapor-plasma-liquid coexistence model describing phase transition from graphite to diamond induced by nanosecond laser processing was proposed. Graphene nano-ribbon rolls might be the intermediate phase in the conversion from graphite to diamond.
2. Establish model of improving laser hardening efficiency at high temperature service.To improve efficiency of laser hardening based on pulse duration modulation and beam optimization technology. Established ‘Meyers uniform dislocation stress nucleation’ model and solved the problem of deformation of parts serving at high temperature after laser hardening. The method can effectively prevent the occurrence of fracture due to stress change and solve the problem of uneven stress distribution and big stress gradient.
3. New method and application of anti-cavitation and wear resistance for key equipment by using laser technology.Studied the wall effect of jet induced by laser pulse, revealed the relationship between the laser parameters and mechanical properties near the wall corrosion. Developed strengthening device and method for water pump impeller which can locate any point of complex surface to repair the damage parts of the pump impeller. The method can effectively improve wear-resisting, corrosion resistance of damaged pump impeller parts.
