Introduction AISI 316L stainless steel has various uses across the engineering spectrum owing to its high corrosion and wear resistance properties.
Improvements of the tribological properties have recently been exploited through various laser surface engineering techniques [1-3].
Among the notable advantages, laser surface engineering enables delivery of a controlled energy with precise temporal and spatial distribution.
Surface roughness measurements were performed using a stylus profilometer, Civil Instruments TR200, with stylus tip radius of 2µm.
