Long-term stable surface modification of DLC coatings

The use of coatings based on diamond like carbon (DLC) for medical applications was established during the last years. Main advantages of these coatings are its high hardness, good wear and friction behavior and its biocompatibility. Using low-energy electron-beam treatment, we addressed the surface...
