レーザー照射によるナトリウムイオン伝導性β-NaFeO₂の溶融凝固と結晶成長

抄録

Laser irradiation of β-NaFeO₂ shows local melting and crystal growth from the melt pool and sodium ion conductivity. Local melting, densification, and crystal growth were confirmed on the β-NaFeO₂ surface through laser irradiation with a wavelength of 1 µm. Scanning electron microscopy and electron backscatter diffraction analysis confirmed anisotropic grain growth and grain boundary shrinkage in the laser-irradiated area. X-ray diffraction results suggested that the laser-irradiated area was in a low crystalline state. In addition, the precipitation of Fe₃O₄ in laser-irradiated β-NaFeO₂ indicates a reduction reaction, suggesting that the laser-irradiated area is heated to 1500℃ or higher. We confirmed that the structure change region could be controlled down to a thickness of about 10 µm by laser irradiation with varying laser power to β-NaFeO₂.
