Effect of sputtering rate on morphological alterations, corrosion resistance, and endothelial biocompatibility by deposited tantalum oxide coatings on NiTi using magnetron sputtering technique

The Magnetron sputtering method was utilized to apply tantalum-oxide coatings on NiTi shape memory alloys, and this was done under 16.6 vol% oxygen, 83.4 vol% argon atmospheres at a substrate temperature of 300 °C. In the present article, the influence of sputtering rate on surface morphology, rough...
