Abstract
Plasma spray physical vapor deposition (PS-PVD) was used to deposit yttria stabilized zirconia (YSZ) coatings with different columnar morphologies by varying the spray distance. Although similar quasi-columnar structures were formed at the spray distances of 600 mm and 1400 mm, the formation mechanisms of particles in the coatings were different. Besides, an electron beam physical vapor deposition (EB-PVD) like columnar coating out of pure vapor was deposited at a spray distance of 1000 mm and the columnar consisted of elongated nano-sized secondary columns. The hardness and Young׳s modulus of the coatings were investigated. Compared to the other two quasi-columnar structures, the EB-PVD like columnar coating exhibited higher hardness (~9.0 GPa ) and Young׳s modulus (~110.9 GPa), mainly due to its low porosity and defect.
