Shells coated with chlorine-doped polymers deposited in a plasma are n
eeded for diagnostic purposes for the OMEGA experiment. We have deposi
ted chlorine-doped plasma polymer films by using a number of different
chlorinated hydrocarbons. Chlorine concentrations between less than o
r equal to 1 to approximate to 35 at.% were obtained. Several characte
ristics of Cl-GDP films such as color, stress, chlorine concentration
homogeneity and thermal stability are discussed.
