Introduction Thermal barrier coatings (TBCs) have become today one of the indispensable technologies for hot-section components of advanced gas turbines, in order to realize the requirements not only for an energy saving but also for a global environmental protection [1, 2].
It is most important to find out the optimum compositional and structural conditions of coating components together with the optimum coating process conditions for designing the advanced TBC systems with more improved durability and reliability.
