“…However, because the ions do not penetrate too deeply (usually less than a micrometer), the modification zone is confined to the near-surface region, and only the surface properties are modified. The effects of ion implantation are different for metals, ceramics, and polymers [109,110]. In metal and ceramic biomaterials, the physical changes arise from atomic and nuclear collisions often leading to formation of highly disordered and sometimes amorphous structures.…”

Plasma-surface modification (PSM) is an effective and economical surface treatment technique for many materials and of growing interests in biomedical engineering. This article reviews the various common plasma techniques and experimental methods as applied to biomedical materials research, such as plasma sputtering and etching, plasma implantation, plasma deposition, plasma polymerization, laser plasma deposition, plasma spraying, and so on. The unique advantage of plasma modification is that the surface properties and biocompatibility can be enhanced selectively while the bulk attributes of the materials remain unchanged. Existing materials can, thus, be used and needs for new classes of materials may be obviated thereby shortening the time to develop novel and better biomedical devices. Recent work has spurred a number of very interesting applications in the biomedical field. This review article concentrates upon the current status of these techniques, new applications, and achievements pertaining to biomedical materials research. Examples described include hard tissue replacements, blood contacting prostheses, ophthalmic devices, and other products. #

“…The combination of ion implantation with processing in a reactive atmosphere extends the possibilities further by utilizing surface reactions and cascade mixing to form surface layers with unique tribological properties. Tribological applications were among the first applications considered for ion implantation in non-semiconductor materials and many glowing reports of success appeared in the literature (1)(2)(3). As the number of investigations increased, cases also began to appear where marginal Improvements in performance and lack of reproduceablllty were also observed (4).…”

“…Figure 4 shows the dose dependence of the factor by which the volumetric wear rate is reduced in the case of a typical steel studied by Hartley. 6 The behavior of the three light interstitial species--carbon, boron, and nitrogen-in steel was compared ( Figure 5) in tests by Harding,7 and it can be seen that they are all beneficial. Figure 3.…”

The process of ion implantation, already widely adopted for the reliable manufacture of semiconductor devices, has now been developed as a highly sophisticated method of tailoring the surfaces of materials to resist wear and c?rrosion. Mechanisms exist that can bring about long-lastmg improvements in performance despite the s~allow penetration of the ions. Equipment has been deslgned to reduce the cost of the process, so as to be competitive with more conventional metal-finishing treatments.This article emphasizes applications to engineering tools and components already used in production. Factors of threeto five-fold increases in life are achieved in a variety of materials including steels and cemented carbides.Some developments which seem likely to extend widely the applications of the process are described.
