Evaluation of chamber components having textured coatings

摘要

A component for a substrate processing chamber comprises a structure having a textured coating with surface grains. The component is evaluated by directing a beam of electrons onto the textured coating of the component to cause at least some of the electrons to be backscattered. The backscattered electrons are detected and a signal image is generated. The component is selected when the signal image exhibits surface grains sized from about 0.1 to about 5 micron. In one version, the component is also selected when the grains are substantially flower shaped.
