Abstract :
This program is developing high power windows fabricated from single crystal sapphire that provide superior mechanical properties. A key requirement is a robust surface coating to suppress multipactor emission. This program developed an innovative process that chemically bonds titanium nitride to the surface, providing a significant improvement over sputtered coatings.
