Biosensing of biophysical characterization by metal-aluminum nitride-metal capacitor

Effect of plasma energy on enhancing biocompatibility and hemocompatibility of diamond-like carbon film with various titanium concentrations

“…In addition, bioreactions can be varied by turning the sur- face chemistry of an implant, such as chemical composition. This can be done by alloy designs or by surface modifications, such as plasma coating [16], plasma treatment [17,18] or electrochemical treatments [1][2][3][4][5]. DLC film containing other biocompatible materials such as titanium, vanadium, and copper can be easy to be prepared doping as biocompatible materials.…”

“…The implant surface influences particularly the interaction and adsorption of various proteins. Based on the description, the enhancement of surface function on implants is proportional to biological reaction such as cell adhesion and behavior [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][14][15][16][17][18]. To create a surface for desired bioreactions, a promising approach is to start from an existing biocompatible coating.…”

“…To create a surface for desired bioreactions, a promising approach is to start from an existing biocompatible coating. Owing to enhancing biocompatibility and hemocompatibility of biomaiertals [2][3][4][5][12][13][14][15][16], there is a growing interest in the application of carbon-based films, such as DLC film, on high technology devices [19][20][21][22] and biomedical implants as well as microsurgery devices [23,24]. Furthermore, DLC film is a spurious base coating to be alloyed with various elements.…”

Microstructure and phase transition of biocompatible titanium oxide film on titanium by plasma discharging

“…The O-Ti-2 specimen has the thicker oxide layer than Ti, and O-Ti-1. The biomedical implants and plates with passive oxide film possess high biocompatibility [26,27]. Titanium anodized in H 2 SO 4 solution showed enhancement of oxide growth and increase of osseointegration [6][7][8].…”

Surface modification induced phase transformation and structure variation on the rapidly solidified recast layer of titanium

“…While, the LTi-4 sample exhibits hydrophilicity surface with contact angle 79°. This could be attributed to the fact that materials with highly rough surfaces induce more air pockets under the liquid drop [29]. Possibility of air been trapped in the cavities of porous surface is high, which could result in formation of hydrophobic solid-air-liquid interface [30,31].…”
