Abstract: A high-entropy alloy film, the composition of which includes titanium, zirconium, niobium, tantalum and iron. The high-entropy alloy film is made with a combination of elements with high biocompatibility, and its formation of non-crystalline structure is further improved by adding iron. Furthermore, as the content of titanium in the high-entropy alloy film is adjusted, the microstructure, mechanical properties, and corrosion resistance of the high-entropy alloy film is changed as well.

Abstract: A method for physical vapor deposition of an aluminum nitride film, comprising: positioning a substrate and an aluminum target in a chamber; vacuuming the chamber so that a chamber pressure is at a base pressure between 7.1×10?7-5×10?6 torr; conducting a working gas composed of argon gas and nitrogen gas into the chamber so that the chamber pressure is at a working pressure between 3-7 mtorr; and depositing the aluminum nitride film on the substrate by applying a high power impulse power supply to the aluminum target and applying a direct current bias power supply to the substrate under the working pressure and a substrate temperature between room temperature (25° C.) to 200° C.; wherein a power of the high power impulse power supply is between 500-600 W and a frequency thereof is between 750-1250 Hz, and a bias of the direct current bias power supply is between ?50-0 V.
