Abstract:
Diamond-like carbon(DLC)films age characterized by hish wear resistance,low friction coefficients and chemical inertness,and thus hish-corrosion resistance.The properties of DLC can further be modified by incorporating other elements in the films,such as N,F,AS,and so on,to adjust them for specific applications.These properties make the films good candidates as biocompatible coatings for biomedical devices and implants.The review gives an overview of the biomedical chagacteristics of diamond-like carbon films and their potential apphcafions.
