Anti-Bacterial Properties and Biocompatibility of Novel SiC Coating for Dental Ceramic

A 200 nm plasma-enhanced chemical vapor-deposited SiC was used as a coating on dental ceramics to improve anti-bacterial properties for the applications of dental prosthesis. A thin SiO<sub>2</sub> (20 nm) in the same system was deposited first, prior to SiC deposition, to improve the ad...
