ABSTRACT

The imperturbability of a surface is a vitally important factor, in the author’s view, for the biological compatibility of artificial surfaces. The imperturbability of a surface could be attained by (1) molecular configuration of macromolecule, such as the case of poly(oxyethyle) (POE), or (2) immobile network structure in the top surface, such as the case of the tight network of luminous chemical vapor deposition (LCVD) nanofilm.
