Control of hydroxyapatite film orientation by RF magnetron sputtering
Abstract:
Hydroxyapatite (HAp) is compatible with bone tissue and used as a bone prosthetic material especially for the implants coating. The c-axis of biological apatite (BAp) in bone is mainly oriented along the bone axis direction due to the mechanical stress produced in this direction. Then, the coating of implant with c-axis parallel oriented HAp thin film is expected to improve the healing speed. In this study, fabrication of oriented HAp thin films was performed by using a RF magnetron sputtering technique. The control of the HAp orientation in the film was achieved by changing the gas conditions, distance and angle between the target and substrate during sputtering.
