“…The increasing demand for new functional coatings has been a strong incentive for research, not only towards understanding the fundamentals and technical aspects of film nucleation and growth, but also towards developing new deposition techniques allowing for a better control of the deposition process [ 132 ]. EB-PVD, powder flame spraying, plasma thermal spray, cold gas dynamic spray coating, sputtering and CVD (Chemical Vapor Deposition) are techniques suited for creating different types of TBCs [ 133 , 134 , 135 , 136 , 137 , 138 , 139 , 140 ]. Actually, EB-PVD and APS are the most widely used techniques for obtaining TBCs and different multilayer coatings from a large class of different materials.…”
