Comparative Study of Zirconium Nitride Multilayer Coatings: Crystallinity, In Vitro Oxidation Behaviour and Tribological Properties Deposited via Sputtering and Arc Deposition

This study aims to evaluate and compare the properties of a biomedical clinically established zirconium nitride (ZrN) multilayer coating prepared using two different techniques: pulsed magnetron sputtering and cathodic arc deposition. The investigation focuses on the crystalline structure, grain siz...
