The work presented in this thesis is related to the design of the future electron-positron collider, called the Compact Linear Collider (CLIC), which is currently under development at CERN. The designed operation of the collider requires accelerating electric field strengths of ∼ 100 MV/m range to reach the target energy range of 0.5 to 5 TeV for the collisions in a realistic and cost efficient way. An important limiting factor of the application of the very high electric fields is the electrical breakdown rate, which has drastic dependence on the accelerating electric field strength E (approximately proportional to E^30 ). In order to achieve material properties capable of tolerating higher electric fields, research on the materials relate...
