Abstract
In a bioinspired approach, we are mimicking various types of naturally occurring materials to fabricate hybrid antibacterial and biocompatible thin films for a range of applications. Natural chitin and chitinoid materials have outstanding physical and biological properties, among those being antimicrobial properties, which inspired us to develop a process for growing biomimetic organic chitinoid and hybrid organic-inorganic metallochitin thin films by applying Molecular Layer Deposition (MLD). This work highlights a novel method to prepare conformal ultrathin films of chitin and hybrid chitin-based biomaterials from the gas phase by Molecular Layer Deposition (MLD) technique. MLD is a thin film growth technique, where the structure is built through sequential self-terminating gas–solid reactions. This project has received funding from the European Union´s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under the Marie Sklodowska -Curie grant agreement No 765378.
