A The present overview describes various production techniques for biocompatible calcium
orthophosphate (abbreviated as CaPO4) deposits (coatings, films and layers) on the …

It is imperative to control the interactions between biomaterials and living tissues to optimize
their therapeutic effects and disease diagnostics. Because most biomaterials do not have …

Sputter deposition of atoms onto liquid substrates aims at producing colloidal dispersions of
small monodisperse ultrapure nanoparticles (NPs). Since sputtering onto liquids combines …

In surgical disciplines, where bones have to be repaired, augmented or improved, bone
substitutes are essential. Therefore, an interest has dramatically increased in application of …

The deposition of a biocompatible calcium phosphate coating on the surface of materials for
biomedical implants by rf-magnetron sputtering is reported. The deposition parameters to …

Strontium (Sr) substituted calcium phosphate (CaP) coatings have stimulated a lot of interest
as Sr is known to provide osteoconductive properties. Most of the work to date with respect …

The resent advances in radio frequency (RF)‐magnetron sputtering of hydroxyapatite films
are reviewed and challenges posed. The principles underlying RF‐magnetron sputtering …
