The deposition of alumina on thermal barrier coatings can effectively avoid hot corrosion and increase durability. Al 2 O 3 coatings were prepared on an yttria‐stabilized zirconia ( YSZ ) substrate by plasma chemical vapor deposition ( CVD ). The effects of microwave power ( P M ) and total pressure ( P tot ) on the crystalline phase and microstructure of Al 2 O 3 coatings were investigated, and the effect of the mechanism on the deposition rate was also analyzed. The α‐Al 2 O 3 coatings with a needle‐like microstructure were formed at a higher P M and P tot , whereas the γ‐phase coatings exhibited a cauliflower‐like microstructure at a lower P M and P tot . A maximum deposition rate ( R dep ) of 58 μmh −1 was obtained, which is significantly higher than those of conventional CVD methods.
