Austenitic stainless steel is still an interesting material. Its grand corrosion properties are superimposed by the poor wear properties. Laser plasma treatments in reactive atmospheres have gained a large potential for technical applications, especially for surface coatings. The work pieces can be covered with hard, resistant carbides whose amount and structure is dependent of the processing parameters: Gas-pressure, number of pulses and energy. The structural, mechanical and chemical changes of the carburized surfaces are investigated by means of Rutherford Backscattering Spectrometry (RBS), Conversion Electron / X-Ray Mössbauer Spectroscopy (CEMS/CXMS), Nanoindentation and X-Ray Diffractometry (XRD). The results such as phase formation, carbon incorporation, hardness and stress are presented. A comparison with magnetron-sputtered austenitic stainless steel will be given. The main focus is the supersaturated fcc-structure (expanded austenite).
