Ti$_{1-x}$Au$_x$ Alloys: Hard Biocompatible Metals and Their Possible Applications [PDF]

arXiv, 2014
The search for new hard materials is often challenging from both theoretical and experimental points of view. Furthermore, using materials for biomedical applications calls for alloys with high biocompatibility which are even more sparse. The Ti$_{1-x}$Au$_x$ ($0.22 \leq x \leq 0.8$) exhibit extreme hardness and strength values, elevated melting ...

Flexible and biocompatible microelectrode arrays fabricated by supersonic cluster beam deposition on SU-8 [PDF]

, 2010
We fabricated highly adherent and electrically conductive micropatterns on SU-8 by supersonic cluster beam deposition (SCBD). This technique is based on the acceleration of neutral metallic nanoparticles produced in the gas phase. The kinetic energy acquired by the nanoparticles allows implantation in a SU-8 layer, thus producing a metal-polymer ...

In Vivo Degradation Behavior of the Magnesium Alloy LANd442 in Rabbit Tibiae [PDF]

, 2011
In former studies the magnesium alloy LAE442 showed promising in vivo degradation behavior and biocompatibility. However, reproducibility might be enhanced by replacement of the rare earth composition metal "E" by only a single rare earth element ...
