To investigate the feasibility and formation laws of fabricating micro-dimples induced by near-wall laser-induced cavitation bubble (LICB) on 7050 aluminum alloy. A high-speed camera and a fiber-optic hydrophone system were used to capture pulsation evolution images and acoustic signals of LICB. Meanwhile, a three-dimensional profilometer was employed to examine the contour morphology of the surface micro-dimple on the specimen. The results show that at an energy level of 500 mJ, the total pulsation period for the empty bubble is 795 μs, with individual pulsation periods of 412.5 μs, 217 μs, and 165 μs for the first, second, and third cycles, respectively, with most energy of the laser and bubble being consumed during the first evolution period. Under the synergy of the plasma shock wave and collapse shock wave, a spherical dimple with a diameter of 450 μm is formed on the sample surface with copper foil as the absorption layer. A model of micro-dimple formed by LICB impact is established. As the energy increases, the depth of the surface micro-dimple peaks at an energy of 400 mJ and then decreases. The depth of the surface micro-dimple increases with the increase in the number of impacts; the optimal technology parameters for the micro-dimple formation by LICB impact are as follows: the absorption layer is copper foil, the energy is 400 mJ, and the number of impacts is three. |
