“…It was reported that the most compressive residual stress is induced with a pulse duration of 1.0 ps ranging from 180 fs to 10 ps using the wavelength of 1028 nm with the 1/e 2 diameter of 3.5 mm, indicating the existence of optimum pulse durations for DLP. 26 However, the influence of the pulse duration on the amount of plastic deformation, which is the direct source of peening effects, has never been reported.…”

This study aims to investigate the influence of the pulse duration on the mechanical properties and dislocation density of an aluminum alloy treated using dry laser peening (DLP), which is a laser peening technique that uses ultrashort pulsed laser-driven shock wave to eliminate the need for a sacrificial overlay under atmospheric conditions. The results of the micro-Vickers hardness test, residual stress measurement, and dislocation density measurement demonstrate that over a pulse duration range of 180 fs to 10 ps, the maximum peening effects are achieved with a pulse duration of 1 ps. Moreover, the most significant DLP effects are obtained by choosing a pulse duration that achieves a laser intensity that simultaneously generates the strongest shock pressure, suppresses optical nonlinear effects, and realizes the least thermal effects, which weaken the shock effects. Shock temperature calculations based on thermodynamic equations also suggest that a laser intensity driving a shock pressure less than 80 GPa, as in the case of a pulse duration of 1 ps in this study, maintains the solid state of the material throughout the process, resulting in significant DLP effects.
