Metals and alloys, including stainless steel, titanium and its alloys, cobalt alloys, and other
metals and alloys have been widely used clinically as implant materials, but implant-related …

Thin films have emerged as an ideal surface treatment to the permanent implant materials to
enhance properties such as biodegradation resistance, better mechanical strengths and …

A novel class of nanostructured Zr 50 Cu 50 (% at.) metallic glass films with superior and
tunable mechanical properties is produced by pulsed laser deposition. The process can be …

Implants and surgical tools are commonly used in the medical field. However, issues
including poor osseointegration, rejection, or bacterial contamination may still occasionally …

Abstract Binary Zr–Cu thin-film alloys were prepared by non-reactive conventional dc and
impulse magnetron co-sputtering using two unbalanced magnetrons equipped with Zr and …

Metallic glasses can exhibit a wide range of local atomic arrangements which are
determined by their processing history, and which control their mechanical properties. While …

The multi-arc ion plating technique has been used to prepare high-entropy (ZrTiNbV) N
ceramic films. Meanwhile, the effects of different nitrogen/argon ratios of RN on film …

Amorphous thin film metallic glasses (TFMGs) have given rise to a widespread research
interest due to their technological promise for practical applications and scientific importance …

Low-cost and non-cytotoxic ternary Zr-Ti-Ag thin film metallic glasses (TFMGs) were
synthesized by DC magnetron sputtering. Results revealed that Ag addition enhanced the …

In this work, we reviewed the available phase selection rules comprising atomic size and
topological aspects, entropies, enthalpies, melting points, valence and itinerant electron …
