Lower Contact

Crystalline hydroxyapatite (HA) and 0.8 wt.% silicon-substituted HA (SiHA) thin films were produced using magnetron co-sputtering. These films were subjected to contact angle measurements and in vitro cell culture study using human osteoblast-like (HOB) cells. A wettability study showed that SiHA has a lower contact angle, and thus is more hydrophilic in nature, as compared to HA. Consequently, enhanced cell growth was observed on SiHA at all time-points. Furthermore, distinct and well-developed actin filaments could be seen within HOB cells on SiHA. Thus, this work demonstrated that the surface properties of the coating may be modified by the substitution of Si into the HA structure.

Cdte Thin Films

In this paper, the effects of electron beam irradiation on the CdTe thin films are studied. The CdTe thin films are characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscope (SEM) and contact angle measurements for different bath concentration. The thin film layers are subjected to irradiation of 6 MeV electrons. Finally the effect of irradiation is correlated to crystal size, grain size and contact angle measurements of the CdTe thin films

Spray Pyrolysis Deposition

CuSbS2thin films were obtained by spray pyrolysis deposition, using polymeric additives for controlling the surface properties and film’s composition. Ternary crystalline chalcostibite compounds have been obtained without any postdeposition treatments. XRD spectra and IR spectroscopy were used to characterize films composition and interactions between components. Films morphology and surface energy were investigated using AFM microscopy and contact angle measurements. Hydrophobic and hydrophilic polymers strongly influence the composition and film morphology.
