Pulsed laser deposition (PLD), which is a novel technique in producing thin films in the recent years, shows unique advantages for the deposition of ferroelectric films. Effects of technical parameters on the pulsed laser deposited ferroelectric films, including substrate temperature, oxygen...

Pulsed laser deposition (PLD), which is a novel technique in producing thin films in the recent years, shows unique advantages for the deposition of bioactive films. Research states of the technical parameters of the pulsed laser deposited bioactive films, including substrate temperature,...

A modified surface layer of hydroxyapatite (HA) target was observed before and after pulsed laser deposition. Two types of HA targets were used for laser ablation. We observed that the surface morphology of the target has a very fine compacted grain structure and presents many irregularities...

Pulsed laser deposition (PLD) is being investigated as an alternative technique to prepare hydroxyapatite coatings. In this research we studied the microstructure and phase composition of the PLD hydroxyapatite films. The surface morphology of the films is composed of droplets for which size...

Pulsed laser deposition (PLD) is a relatively new technique for producing thin films. It presents unique advantages for the deposition of bioactive ceramics. The mechanism and characteristics of the technique PLD are introduced. Its applications and current research status in hydroxyapatite and...
