Hydroxyapatite (HAP) coatings are commonly used to improve the bioactivity of Ti alloy used for orthopedic or dental implants. Recently, in order to decrease the dissolution rate and to improve the mechanical and anticorrosive properties, as well as the osseointegration of the HAP coated titanium alloy, the addition of different elements (Si or Ti) into HAP films was proposed.
