Conclusions
The results presented here within, report the progress that has been made in the
development of scanning laser epitaxy; deposits of MarM-247 and CMSX-4 have been produced
that are fully dense and metallurgically bonded to the base substrates. Optimization of the
parameter space for both MARM and CMSX has been conducted, yielding desirable parameters
for use in future work. Further, the results highlight the need for having a process feedback
control system which can be exploited to maintain a constant meltback depth or maintain a
optimized thermal gradient throughout the deposit.
