Transition metal doped apatites as inert non-toxic pigments by Seah, Jasmine Si Han

“…In addition, SEM has affirmed that the synthesized compounds have a particle size ranging between 1-10µm and this synthetic technique has the capability of producing powder samples with uniform particle size distribution. Lastly, PLD has opened a new avenue of potential applications for the compound as the experiment provided evidence that it was possible to deposit the copper-doped hydroxyapatite compound onto a quartz substrate and the resulting thin-film was crystalline and calcium-deficient.…”
