Amorphous calcium phosphate coatings were produced by pulsed laser deposition from targets of nonstoichiometric hydroxyapatite (Ca/P Γ 1.70) at a low substrate temperature of 300 ΠC. They were heated in air at different temperatures: 300, 450, 525 and 650 ΠC. Chemical and structural analyses of thes

## Abstract Studies of various apatite coatings on metal orthopaedic prostheses suggest that coating dissolution may promote enhanced bone bonding. Little is known concerning the effect of crystallinity and the underlying roughness on calcium phosphate (Ca/P) coating dissolution rate. To address th
## Abstract Solβgelβderived TiO~2~ coatings are known to promote bonelike hydroxyapatite formation on their surfaces __in vitro__ and __in vivo__. Hydroxyapatite integrates into bone tissue. In some clinical applications, the surface of an implant is simultaneously interfaced with soft and hard tis
Femtosecond lasers provide a novel method of attaching bioceramic material to a titanium alloy, thereby improving the quality of bone implants. The ultrashort 30 fs laser pulses (790 nm wavelength) penetrate a thin dip-coated layer of fine ceramic powder, while simultaneously melting a surface layer
