16. Silicon nitride based coatings for biomedical implants
Abstract : Silicon nitride-based coatings have been proposed as a means to reduce the release of metal ions and debris from metallic implants. This reduction in combination with the biocompatible debris from silicon nitride could result in a less adverse immune response. READ MORE

17. Triboactive Low-Friction Coatings Based on Sulfides and Carbides
Abstract : For sustainable development, it is highly important to limit the loss of energy and materials in machines used for transportation, manufacturing, and other purposes. Large improvements can be achieved by reducing friction and wear in machine elements, for example by the application of coatings. READ MORE

18. Synthesis and Characterisation of Magnetron Sputtered Alumina-Zirconia Thin Films
Abstract : Alumina-Zirconia thin films were grown on a range of substrates using dual magnetron sputtering. Film growth was achieved at a relatively low temperature of 450 °C and at higher temperatures up to 810 °C. The films were grown on well-defined surfaces such as silicon (100) but also on industrially relevant substrates such as hardmetal (WC-Co). READ MORE

19. Synthesis and Characterization of Ternary Carbide Thin Films
Abstract : This thesis reports on synthesis, microstructure and properties of binary and ternary carbide thin films deposited by dc magnetron sputtering. These materials are interesting since they exhibit a wide range of useful properties, such as high hardness, resistance to wear and oxidation, and high electrical conductivity. READ MORE

20. Design, synthesis and characterisation of multilayered PVD coatings
Abstract : Physically vapour deposited multilayered coatings were the target of this thesis.Several different wear resistant nitride coatings (TiN/CrN, TiN/MoN, TiN/NbN andTiN/TaN) have been evaluated. READ MORE
