description In this work, AlN/Ti/AlN/SiO2 multilayered selective solar absorber coating (MSSAC) was deposited onto Fe3O4 modified stainless steel substrate using DC/RF magnetron sputtering. The substrate modification was done by simple annealing in air at 600 oC for 1h and achieved rough oxide layer of Fe3O4 on the surface of the substrate. The resulting samples were subjected to heat treatment at various temperatures in air for 2 h, and was characterized by X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, atomic force microscope, energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy and UV-Vis-NIR spectrophotometer. The optical constants of the MSSAC was determined from the measured experimental reflectance data. The AlN/Ti/AlN/SiO2 MSSAC was found to be thermally stable up to 500 oC in air with high solar absorptance of 93.04 in the solar spectrum range and low thermal emittance of 12.13 in the infrared range. The high absorptance is attributed to the columnar growth of the film as propped by SEM and AFM analysis and the antireflection layer of SiO2. However, at 600 oC, the solar absorptance decreased to 91.78 from 93.04 and the thermal emittance rose to 19.03 from 12.13, which is attributed decrease in the surface roughness of the coatings.
