The structural-phase state of the surface layers of Al$_{63}$Cu$_{25}$Fe$_{11}$ alloy containing icosahedral quasi-crystalline $\psi$-phase after low-temperature thermal cycling, isothermal annealing and pulse-laser treatment in the surface-melting mode is investigated by the XRD and metallographic analyses. As shown, the microhardness of the initial structure significantly increases after thermo-cycling. The maxima of microhardness inside the laser-action zone are associated with decreasing in the cooling rate of the melt in these areas.
Key words: icosahedral quasi-crystalline phase, thermocycling, annealing, pulse-laser treatment, microstructure.
