A chamber component comprises a body and a plasma sprayed ceramic coating on the body. The plasma sprayed ceramic coating is applied using a method that includes feeding powder comprising a yttrium oxide containing solid solution into a plasma spraying system, wherein the powder comprises a majority of donut-shaped particles, each of the donut-shaped particles having a spherical body with indentations on opposite sides of the spherical body. The method further includes plasma spray coating the body to apply a ceramic coating onto the body, wherein the ceramic coating comprises the yttrium oxide containing solid solution, wherein the donut-shaped particles cause the ceramic coating to have an improved morphology and a decreased porosity as compared to powder particles of other shapes, wherein the improved surface morphology comprises a reduced amount of surface nodules.

One or more aspects of the disclosure pertain to an article including a film disposed on a glass substrate, which may be strengthened, where the interface between the film and the glass substrate is modified, such that the article has an improved average flexural strength, and the film retains key functional properties for its application.
