Resumen:
Rutile crystalline phase of TiO2 has been one of the most investigated materials for medical applications. Its implementation as asurface layer on biomedical implants has shownto improve hemocompatibility and biocompatibility. In this work, titanium dioxide coatingswere deposited on glass and steel 316L substrates using cathodic arc deposition. The coatingswere obtained at different substrate temperatures; varying from room temperature to 600ºC.The crystalline structure of the films was identified by glancing angle X-ray diffraction.Depending on the substrate material and on its temperature during the deposition process,anatase, anatse+rutile and rutile structures were observed. It was determined that rutile films can be obtained below 600 ºC with this deposition method.
