Haemocompatibility evaluation of DLC- and SiC-coated surfaces
Diamond-like carbon (DLC) and silicon carbide (SiC) coatings are attractive because of low friction coefficient, high hardness, chemical inertness and smooth finish, which they provide to biomedical devices. Silicon wafers (Si<inf>waf</inf>) and silicone rubber (Si<inf>rub</inf&...
