Driving a more robust and sustainable space career through the development of treatments that ensure high-quality observations and efficient communication

The project’s goal is to foster a more robust and sustainable space industry by developing advanced surface treatments that ensure high-quality observations and efficient communication.

• Cr-free conversion coatings with low resistivity, a crucial factor in preventing multipactor effect in high-power RF waveguides.
• Super-black anodising for the UV-Vis-SWIR spectrum to enhance the optical performance of passive optical systems.
• Pb-free Sn coatings to mitigate whisker growth to improve the reliability of electronic components.

The project will strengthen and enhance these surface treatment developments through two cross-cutting and essential activities to ensure the successful achievement of its objective:

• A tool (software) that allows quantifying and classifying whiskers to understand the influence of surface treatment on whisker proliferation.
• A method for measuring the electrical resistivity by contact of nanometric conversion layers, that is, with very low resistivity
