Tuning Surface Chemistry of Polyetheretherketone by Gold Coating and Plasma Treatment
Polyetheretherketone (PEEK) has good chemical and biomechanical properties that are excellent for biomedical applications. However, PEEK exhibits hydrophobic and other surface characteristics which cause limited cell adhesion. We have investigated the potential of Ar plasma treatment for the formation of a nanostructured PEEK surface in order to enhance cell adhesion. The specific aim of this s...
متن کاملTuning cell autophagy by diversifying carbon nanotube surface chemistry.
The induction of autophagy by nanoparticles causes nanotoxicity, but appropriate modulation of autophagy by nanoparticles may have therapeutic potential. Multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) interact with cell membranes and membrane-associated molecules before and after internalization. These interactions alter cellular signaling and impact major cell functions such as cell cycle, apoptosis, a...
متن کاملSurface chemistry during plasma etching of silicon
Angle-resolved x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy ( X P S ) and laserinduced thermal desorption (LD), combined with laser-induced fluorescence (LIF) detection, were used to study the etching of olycrystalline Si (poly-Si) and single crystal Si(lO0) in high density (1-2 x 10fl ions/cm3), low presswe (0.510 mTorr) C12MBr-containing, helical resonator plasmas. The XPS measurements on both unmasked S...
متن کاملReversible Modulation of Surface Plasmons in Gold Nanoparticles Enabled by Surface Redox Chemistry.
Switchable surface redox chemistry is demonstrated in gold@iron/iron oxide core-shell nanoparticles with ambient oxidation and plasmon-mediated reduction to modulate the oxidation state of shell layers. The iron shell can be oxidized to iron oxide through ambient oxidation, leading to an enhancement and red-shift of the gold surface plasmon resonance (SPR). This enhanced gold SPR can drive redu...
