In accordance with this disclosure, there are provided several inventions, including a substrate processing apparatus with multi-layer surfaces configured to face the plasma and resist against corrosion. These multi-layer surfaces may in one example include a base layer of aluminum, anodized aluminum, or quartz, a second layer of stabilized zirconia, and a second layer of a yttrium-aluminum composite such as yttrium aluminum garnet (YAG).
