ZrCuAg Thin-Film Metallic Glasses: Toward Biostatic Durable Advanced Surfaces.

A combinatorial approach has served as a high-throughput strategy to identify compositional windows with optimized desired properties. Here, ZrCuAg thin-film metallic glasses were deposited by DC magnetron sputtering. For the purpose of using these coatings as biomedical surfaces, their durability in terms of mechanical and physicochemical properties as well as antibacterial properties were characterized.
