Abstract

Abstract Silver-doped hydroxyapatite (Ca10 ? xAgx(PO4)6(OH)2 ? x) films were synthesized and deposited on anodized titanium (Ti) using electrophoretic. The influence of different silver-dopant contents (X = 0, 0.02, 0.05, 0.08 and 0.1) on the phase formation and microstructure of the powders were characterized by means of X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscope (XPS), and Fourier transform infrared spectrum analysis (FT-IR). {XRD} analysis confirmed the formation of Hexagonal structure of hydroxyapatite (HAp) annealed at 600
