Transformative Bioactive Wear Resistant Ti3Au:N and Ti3Au:O Coatings for Medical Implants and Devices

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Coatings of titanium‐gold are grown in nitrogen and oxygen environments via magnetron sputtering to simultaneously enhance their biotribological and antibacterial properties. The coatings are highly crystalline with superhard scratch‐resistant surfaces and wear rates 20 times lower than the bare Ti‐6Al‐4V substrate.

Boosting Mechanoluminescence Performance in Doped CaZnOS by the Facile Self‐Reduction Approach

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Self‐reduction primarily enhances mechanoluminescence intensity by deliberately introducing lattice defects, which increase structural distortion and amplify the piezoelectric response, thereby improving the force‐to‐light conversion efficiency. Additionally, self‐reduction optimizes the local distribution of Mn2+ ions, promoting energy concentration ...
