Abstract
A process for generating a compact alumina passivation layer on an aluminum component includes rinsing the component in deionized water for at least one minute, drying it for at least one minute, and exposing it to concentrated nitric acid, at a temperature below 10° C., for one to 30 minutes. The process also includes rinsing the component in deionized water for at least one minute, drying it for at least one minute, and exposing it to NH4OH for one second to one minute. The process further includes rinsing the component in deionized water for at least one minute and drying it for at least one minute. A component for use in a plasma processing system includes an aluminum component coated with an AlxOy film having a thickness of 4 to 8 nm and a surface roughness less than 0.05 μm greater than a surface roughness of the component without the AlxOy film.
