Abstract

LASER (Light Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation) is an Electromagnetic Radiation. The LASER beam is of coherent and monochromatic characteristics. The coherent LASER beam can propagate in a straight line with minor divergence. The primary classification of the LASER beam is the pulsed and continuous mode in a wide range of wavelengths, energy/power, and configurations. LASER's wide range of commercial availability caters to the application in ordinary to most sophisticated devices for industrial, scientific, medical, and defense actions. In this contribution, we corroborate an overview of the Materials Processing. The covered processes are sketchily classified into two major categories as Laser-assisted micro/nano processing and Laser-assisted bulk processing. The laser-assisted micro/nano processing is primarily subclassified into the deposition, patterning/engraving, cutting, and joining, secondly, classified as Machining, Surface cleaning/engineering, bimetallic joining, forming, honing, hardening, peening, and open-air nitriding. This chapter highlights current developments, research and development, and outstanding questions by quickly introducing relevant papers’ fundamentals and most recent updates. We begin by looking at laser applications, principles of laser-matter interactions, and laser material processing classifications. The main emphasis of the topic is on laser surface modification, which has attracted the interest of industry and the scientific community due to its technological relevance and obstacles. Incidentally, a specific comment is substantiated about open-air Laser nitriding, shock peening, and honing that remains a challenging and unaccomplished proposition.
