Methods for forming a coated component, along with the resulting coated components, are provided. The method may include forming a silicon-based bond coating on a surface of a substrate and forming a barrier coating on the silicon-based bond coating. The silicon-based bond coating comprises columnar grains of crystalline silicon. Chemical vapor depositing (CVD) may be used to form the silicon-based bond coating through CVD of a silicon-containing precursor at a deposition temperature and deposition pressure that causes crystallization of the silicon material during the deposition of the silicon-based bond coating. The silicon-containing precursor may be silane, monochlorosilane, dichlorosilane, and/or trichlorosilane.

An environmental barrier coating, comprising a substrate containing silicon; an environmental barrier layer applied to said substrate; said environmental barrier layer comprising a rare earth composition.

A method of applying a protective coating to a substrate includes the steps of: providing a turbine engine component substrate formed of a ceramic matrix composite material, forming an environmental barrier coating layer including a rare earth disilicate material directly on the substrate, treating an outer surface of the environmental barrier coating layer to form a thermal barrier coating layer including a porous rare earth monociliate material directly on the environmental barrier coating layer. The step of treating the outer surface is performed using a thermal process consisting of the application of heat or a chemical-thermal process consisting of the application of heat and a chemical. The method further includes infiltrating at least a portion of the pores with a metal solution or suspension.
