Atomic layer deposition of nano-TiO2 thin films with enhanced biocompatibility and antimicrobial activity for orthopedic implants
Titanium (Ti) and its alloys have been extensively used as implant materials in orthopedic applications. Nevertheless, implants may fail due to a lack of osseointegration and/or infection. The aim of this in vitro study was to endow an implant surface with favorable biological properties by the dual modification of surface chemistry and nanostructured topography. The application of a nanostruct...
متن کاملReduced bacterial growth and increased osteoblast proliferation on titanium with a nanophase TiO2 surface treatment
BACKGROUND The attachment and initial growth of bacteria on an implant surface dictates the progression of infection. Treatment often requires aggressive antibiotic use, which does not always work. To overcome the difficulties faced in systemic and local antibiotic delivery, scientists have forayed into using alternative techniques, which includes implant surface modifications that prevent init...
متن کاملBiomimetic Hydroxyapatite Deposition on Titanium Oxide Surfaces for Biomedical Application
Titanium is widely used as material for permanent implants in orthopedic and dental applications. It is well known that Ti shows a mechanically stable interface towards bone (osseointegration). The good biological properties are due to the beneficial properties of the native oxide (TiO2) that forms on Ti when exposed to oxygen. The native titanium oxide on Ti is usually amorphous and very thin,...
متن کاملNanolaminate structures fabricated by ALD for reducing propagation losses and enhancing the third-order optical nonlinearities
We demonstrate a novel atomic layer deposition (ALD) process to make high quality nanocrystalline titanium dioxide (TiO2) and zinc oxide (ZnO) with intermediate Al2O3 layers to limit the crystal size. The waveguide losses of TiO2/Al2O3 nanolaminates measured using the prism coupling method for both 633 nm and 1551 nm wavelengths are as low as 0.2 ± 0.1 dB/mm with the smallest crystal size. We a...
متن کاملElectron microscopy observation of TiO2 nanocrystal evolution in high-temperature atomic layer deposition.
Understanding the evolution of amorphous and crystalline phases during atomic layer deposition (ALD) is essential for creating high quality dielectrics, multifunctional films/coatings, and predictable surface functionalization. Through comprehensive atomistic electron microscopy study of ALD TiO2 nanostructures at designed growth cycles, we revealed the transformation process and sequence of at...
