The structure of laser-welded joints of parts having different thicknesses fabricated from alloys based on aluminum and titanium has been studied. Results of transmission and scanning electron microscopy measurements and x-ray diffraction analysis show that the diffusion interaction of microvolumes of two alloys in the weld leads to the formation of two interlayers: (i) a continuous intermetallic TiAl layer with thickness below 1 μm adjacent to the titanium alloy and (ii) a layer consisting of TiAl3 intermetallic dendrites with thickness of 2 – 6 μm adjacent to the TiAl layer. The average microhardness of the intermetallic layer is about 490 HV.
