Comparison of the survey spectra of the samples after NaOH etching but before functionalization (NaOH) and after aminopropyltriethoxysilane (APTES) (VapAPTES) functionalization. Successful attachment of APTES is evidenced by the presence of nitrogen and silicon species, which were not present on the bare Ti-6Al-4V surface.
