Abstract: γ-Fe nano-particles with size of 20-40 nm were produced by SF6-sensitized CW CO2 laser-induced gaseous pyrolysis of Fe(Co) 5, The γ-Fe stabte in reaction zone at above 910℃ was formed.The rapid quenching prevents from the γ-Fe transforming to α-Fe as rapidly cooling from high temperature to room temperature, The characteristics of the particles were examined at room temperature by TEM. electron diffraction and XRD. It was proved that about 70% of γ-Fe phase in the particles was present. In addition. the lattice constant of the γ-Fe was 0.364 nm in place of 0.360 nm
