Abstract:A highly reflective thermal radiation barrier coating (TRBC) made of a multi-layer film is studied for high temperature applications. The multi-layer film with a periodic microstructure consisting of cylindrical nanopores acts a photonic band gap (PBG) crystal. The coating is constructed such that pores are arranged periodically along the in-plane directions and axes of the pores are parallel to the thickness direction. The pore diameter is varied periodically through the thickness to form a multilayer film of… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
