Comparison of optical and antibacterial behavior of Nb2O5 coatings prepared by Gas Impulse Magnetron Sputtering with homogenous and gradient distribution of bioactive ions
Transparent Nb 2 O 5 -based thin-film coatings prepared by Gas Impulse Magnetron Sputtering (GIMS) demonstrate excellent optical properties and selective antibacterial activity. Doping with bioactive metals, distributed uniformly or in a gradient, enhances biocidal activity.
