The coating was characterized by X-ray diffraction, high resolution scanning electron microscope, profilometer, nanoindentation and nanomachining tests. The X-ray phase analysis exhibit the tetragonal Zr0.935Y0.065O1.968, TiO and α-Ti phases. The Rietveld refinement technique were indicated the changes of crystal structure of the produced coatings. The characteristic structure of columns were observed in High Resolutions Scanning Electron Microscopy. Moreover, the obtained coating had various development of surfaces, thickness was equal to 3.1(1) µm and roughness 0.40(7) µm. Furthermore, the production coatings did not show microcracks, delamination and crumbing. The performed experiment encourages carried out us to tests for osseointegration.}, type={Artykuły / Articles}, title={Microstructure and Properties of YSZ Coatings Prepared by Plasma Spray Physical Vapor Deposition for Biomedical Application}, URL={http://www.czasopisma.pan.pl/Content/111353/PDF/AMM-2019-2-56-Barczyk.pdf}, doi={10.24425/amm.2019.127613}, keywords={PS-PVD method, bioactive coatings, cp-Ti, YSZ, osseointegration}, }
