Pulsed Laser Deposition of Hydroxyapatite Thin Films

Pulsed laser deposition (PLD) was used to deposit hydroxyapatite (HA) thin films on various substrates, including silicon (100) and titanium (Ti-6Al-4V) alloy. Thin films of amorphous HA were deposited at room temperature and then annealed over a range of temperatures. The microstructure and composi...
