Effect of carbon ion implantation on the tribology of metal-on-metal bearings for artificial joints

Metal-on-metal (MoM) bearings have become popular due to a major advantage over metal-on-polymer bearings for total hip arthroplasty in that the larger femoral head and hydrodynamic lubrication of the former reduce the rate of wear.
