Abstract: In this paper, a Nd:YAG laser was used to generate micropores on SiC surface and the structure and morphology features of surface micropores were observed. Tribological experiments were conducted with pin-on-disc tester under various loads and speeds. The article concentrates on identification of friction processes and also attempts to find a correlation between surface energy, friction force and topography of surface with geometrical texture.
