Crystallographic texture in pulsed laser deposited hydroxyapatite bioceramic coatings.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The orientation texture of pulsed laser deposited hydroxyapatite coatings was studied by X-ray diffraction techniques. Increasing the laser energy density of the KrF excimer laser used in the deposition process from 5 to 7 J/cm(2) increases the tendency for the c-axes of the hydroxyapatite grains to be aligned perpendicular to the substrate. This preferred orientation is most pronounced when the incidence direction of the plume is normal to the substrate. Orientation texture of the hydroxyapatite grains in the coatings is associated with the highly directional and energetic nature of the ablation plume. Anisotropic stresses, transport of hydroxyl groups and dehydroxylation effects during deposition all seem to play important roles in the texture development.

Calcium Phosphate Bioceramics with Tailored Crystallographic Texture for Controlling Cell Adhesion
The orientation distribution of crystalline grains in calcium phosphate coatings produced by pulsed laser deposition was investigated using an X-ray pole-figure diffractometer. Increased laser energy density of a KrF excimer laser in the 4–7 J/cm range leads to the formation of hydroxyapatite grains with the c-axis preferentially aligned perpendicularly to the substrates. This preferred orienta...
متن کاملBio-ceramic Composite Coatings by Cold Spray Technology
Bioceramics such as hydroxyapatite (HAP) have been conventionally deposited by plasma spray technique. However, due to the inherent high temperature in the plasma, deleterious effects such as evaporation, phase alteration, residual stress, debonding, and gas release etc., commonly occur in these coatings. This paper presents a novel approach to deposit bioceramic coatings at temperatures well b...
متن کاملHydroxyapatite coatings grown by pulsed laser deposition with a beam of 355 nm wavelength
Calcium phosphate coatings, obtained at different deposition rates by pulsed laser deposition with a Nd:YAG laser beam of 355 nm wavelength, were studied. The deposition rate was changed from 0.043 to 1.16 Å/shot by modification of only the ablated area, maintaining the local fluence constant to perform the ablation process in similar local conditions. Characterization of the coatings was perfo...
متن کاملEffects of Laser Power Level on Microstructural Properties and Phase Composition of Laser-Clad Fluorapatite/Zirconia Composite Coatings on Ti6Al4V Substrates
Hydroxyapatite (HA) is one of the most commonly used materials for the coating of bioceramic titanium (Ti) alloys. However, HA has poor mechanical properties and a low bonding strength. Accordingly, the present study replaces HA with a composite coating material consisting of fluorapatite (FA) and 20 wt % yttria (3 mol %) stabilized zirconia (ZrO₂, 3Y-TZP). The FA/ZrO₂ coatings are deposited on...
