Abstract

See full text

Methods and systems for the improvement of a crystalline and/or poly-crystalline surgical blade include gas cluster ion beam irradiation of the blades in order to smooth; or to sharpen; or to reduce the brittleness and thus reduce susceptibility of the blade to crack, chip, or fracture; or to render the blades hydrophilic. Crystalline or poly-crystalline surgical blade (silicon for example) having a thin film cutting edge with improved properties.
