Abstract

This project is to aim at development of advanced nano-coating processing technology through design and control of nano-coating structures with aid of theoretical and computer techniques, since accurate control of structures such as nano-interface, nano-pores, and nano-particles is key to state-of-the-art coating technology. An integral part of this research is development of fast, ultra-precise evaluation technology of properties and performance of coatings from nano- to macro-level. In this project, we have focused on an establishment of basic technology for nanostructure control of ceramic coatings applied to metals, to provide novel functions. This technology is intended to reduce further mankind's impact on environment and to enhance energy savings in a wide range of fields, particularly those requiring heat-resistant and corrosion-resistant materials. This project was entrusted by NEDO as the Nanotechnology Program/the Nanostructure Coating Project promoted by METI, Japan, and has started in 2001 and will be completed in 2006.
