This paper studied the feasibility of a new solution-processed method to manufacture black tungsten nanostructures by laser conversion of tungsten hexacarbonyl precursor on the Inconel 625 substrate under argon atmosphere at ambient pressure. The results show that sublimation of the precursor can be prevented if the decomposition temperature (&gt;170 °C) is achieved using the laser heating method. Three different laser powers from 60-400 W were used to investigate the role of laser parameters on the conversion. It was found that lower laser power of 60 W resulted in a mixture of unconverted precursor and converted tungsten. Higher laser powers &gt;200 W resulted in α-W (BCC) in one step without further heat treatment. Different oxygen concentrations from 0.5 ppm to 21 vol% were used in the laser canister to investigate the effect of oxygen concentration on the conversion. It was found that the hard vacuum (&gt;10 -4 torr) or hydrogen is not necessary to obtain α-W (BCC). The solar absorptance varied from 63-97%, depending on the amount of precursor deposited on the substrate and oxygen content in the laser canister. This solution-based laser conversion of tungsten precursor is a scalable method to manufacture tungsten coatings for high-temperature applications.
