The dissimilar materials welding was carried out between austenitic stainless steel 304 L (low carbon) and aluminum alloy 5083 by a low power single-mode continuous wave Ytterbium fiber laser in steel-on-aluminum overlapping configuration and keyhole mode. In order to compensate for both the mechani...
