High power impulse magnetron sputtering deposited virucide and antibacterial CrN-Cu films and the durability of the antimicrobial activity

Surfaces loaded with microbes can contribute to the propagation of a wide variety of pathogens. In this work, the antimicrobial potential of a hard coating (CrN) doped with different proportions of a biocide element (copper) has been studied. The coatings have been deposited by reactive high power i...
