10 Physical and Chemical Vapor Deposition
10.1 Introduction Bioengineering solves problems that confront health professionals in daily practice. Medically-related technical challenges range from complex large-scale diagnostic or managing tools such as NMR tomography and laboratory medicine or hospital information systems, to the design and development of implant devices and materials in a wide range of applications from artificial cardiac valves to plates, screws and joints in orthopaedic or cranio-maxillofacial surgery. Bioengineering is a basic research-oriented activity, closely related to physics, material sciences, chemistry, biology and medicine, designed to enable one to understand, modify, or control human biologic systems as well as design and manufacture products that assist technically in the treatment of patients. Implants replace a part or a function of the body in a reliable and physically-acceptable manner. Biomaterials in implants are mostly uniform materials but can be designed also as compound materials built of a substrate, responsible for mechanical strength adapted to the biomechanical necessities, and a surface material designed close to the locus-specific requirements of biocompatibility. A biomaterial is a nonviable material used in a medical device, intended to interact with biological systems. Biocompatibil
