The objective of this task are to (a) evaluate several fabrication procedures for development of aluminum nitride (AlN) coatings on the candidate first-wall structural material V-5wt.%Cr-5wt.%Ti, (b) evaluate the stability of coatings in contact with the structural alloy and liquid Li at temperatures of 200 to 400{degrees}C, (c) measure the electrical resistivity of the coated films after exposure to liquid Li, (d) evaluate the effects of coating defects on electrical resistivity, and (e) establish in-situ repair procedures to maintain adequate electrical insulating properties for the coatings.
