ABSTRACT:
An improved component for use in a deposition chamber is constructed from ceramic zirconia and a stabilizing compound. The zirconia is preferably in a partially stabilized form and is coated with a metallic layer such as thermally sprayed aluminum. The surface of the zirconia is roughened to improve adhesion between the zirconia and the aluminum. Alternatively, an intermediate layer may be deposed between the zirconia and the metallic layer to improve the bonding between the layers. The coated zirconia component resists flaking when covered with materials that are being deposited in the deposition chamber and, thus, reduces the likelihood that devices being constructed in the deposition chamber will be contaminated by loose particles.
