Abstract. Redistribution of elements in joints of steel plates after laser welding is studied. Laser emission spectral analysis (LIBS) reveals the following trends of horizontal and vertical migration of alloying elements: Mn towards the front side of the weld joint, Al towards the back side with concentration at the central line. Dependences of the redistribution on welding type and parameters are studied.
