The walls can be coated by various materials, using a set of 4 evaporation ovens: two fixed and two mounted on retractable manipulators.

TJ-II was the first stellarator to be operated with Lithium-coated walls.
In the course of time, TJ-II has been operated with the following types of wall:

TJ-II was the first stellarator to be operated with Lithium-coated walls.
The lithium coating has led to much improved density control.
