The structure of biocoats based on TiO₂ doped with nitrogen study

Nitrogen-doped titanium dioxide (N-TiO₂) nanofilms were deposited by reactive magnetron sputtering under different bias voltage. The mode of sputtering influences to formation and properties of titanium films. X-ray diffraction (XRD) was used to study the phase transition and crystallinity of the nanofilms. A technique of layer-by-layer measurement of Raman scattering from nanostructured titanium dioxide films based on a preliminary sputtering of the films by argon beam under an angle of 45° and less has been developed. Experimentally confirmed low dissolution rate of the coating in NaCl saline (0.9%).
