  Anti-icing coatings are intended to prevent ice formation on surfaces, minimising the risk of surface-related damage and also reducing ice-related hazards in society. We demonstrate the usefulness of x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) as a tool for investigating the anti-icing properties of surfaces simultaneously with their chemical composition by looking at the initial stages of water absorption on the surface of CeO2 coatings. CeO2 coatings are robust, hydrophobic, and transmit light, thus they are suitable for a range of applications. In this work, CeO2 coatings were grown by sputter deposition and transferred to an ultra-high vacuum chamber where they were cooled to ≈ 100 K and exposed to a H2O atmosphere at 1 × 10−8 mbar. XPS measurements were performed before and after the exposure to H2O, in-situ and at cryogenic temperatures. The chemical composition of CeO2 did not change significantly during the experiment. Additionally, XPS revealed that little to no ice formed on the surface of CeO2 after the H2O exposure at ≈ 100 K. In contrast, ice was observed all over the sample holder on which the CeO2 was mounted. These findings suggest CeO2 is a promising candidate for future anti-icing coatings and that XPS is a useful technique to investigate the anti-icing properties of surfaces.

  Metal-organic frameworks (MOF) hold great promise for CO2 adsorption due to their high surface areas, tunable pore sizes, and the ability to modify their chemical properties to enhance CO2 affinity. MOFs tagged with functional groups either at linker or metal sites have shown improved CO2 uptake capacity and selectivity. This study focuses on investigating the potential of selective CO2 adsorption using amino functionalization of linker forming Ce-UiO-66. The physicochemical properties and characteristics of MOFs to determine the degree of amino functionalization and structural stability were examined using powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD), Fourier transformer infra-red (FTIR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), and N2 porosimetry and specific surface area (BET). This work unveils a novel array of results on CO2, N2 and water vapour adsorption on Ce-UiO-66-NH2. The amino-functionalized Ce-UiO-66-NH2 shows 63 % higher CO2 uptake and 84 % higher CO2/N2 selectivity at 273 K and 1 bar over Ce-UiO-66. Ce-UiO-66-NH2 also shows excellent structural stability after gas and vapour sorption making Ce-UiO-66-NH2 potential adsorbent for CO2 capture.

  In order to guarantee the long-term efficiency of hydrophobic materials in real-world situations, it is necessary that their surfaces are highly resistant to scratching, fouling and misting. Furthermore, for the specific applications, e.g. in photovoltaic systems, the water-repelling material must necessarily have a large bandage, such that it does not absorb light in the spectral range which is utilized by the underlying photovoltaic cell. One especially promising candidate for this and many other technologically important applications is cerium dioxide (CeO2, ceria). In the current study, we propose the production framework for the manufacturing of CeO2-based thin films with tunable wetting behavior. For obtaining the coatings with various hydrophobicity, ceria is deposited on the substrates with different roughness via reactive magnetron sputtering, with consequent treatment of the films in vapor of different hydrocarbons. By systematic study using the XRD, SEM, XPS and water contact angle (WCA) instruments, we found that surface texturization, different plains at the surface of the films as well as the adsorbed organic molecules all strongly influence on wettability of the CeO2 thin films. In addition, comparison of WCAs for ceria and silicon oxide SiOx is performed. The higher wettability for the former points out the essential role of the surface material despite presence of hydrocarbons. It is demonstrated that by purposeful controlling for all the parameters – surface texturization, the top material and its crystallography, and adsorbed organic molecules – one can reach superhydrophobic state of the surface.

  Mixed anion compounds have multiple different anions as part of their structure. Due to the different nature of individual anions the mixed anion compounds may exhibit other properties than the well known single anion compounds (examples being oxides and hydrides). One group of the relatively new field of mixed anion compounds is the oxyhydrides. The oxyhydrides contain both H− and O2− anions. In this work yttrium oxyhydride (YHO), regarded as one of the rare-earth oxyhydrides (RE-O-H), was studied. This compound had already been observed to have interesting photochromic (PC) properties when illuminated by UV and visible light. A complete understanding on the origin of the PC effect and its limitations had although not yet been established. The aim of this thesis was to study thin films of YHO on glass before and after UV- illumination to understand more of the color changing mechanism. Thin films of YHO deposited by reactive magnetron sputtering were studied by the methods of Raman spec- troscopy, X-ray diffraction (XRD) and cyclic optical testing. Some films coated with thin layers of palladium (Pd) were studied with regards to electrical resistivity as well. The latter was an attempt on revealing whether hydrogen diffusion takes part in the photodarkening. The electrical measurements were performed with a four point probe. The thin films of YHO were observed to easily burn when exposed to lasers of wavelength 532 and 633 nm. From Raman measurements within the damaged spots on the film it was clear that the sample had been destroyed by the lasers. Thus, a large part of this work was related to optimizing the measurement conditions for Raman spectroscopy. The Raman peaks of the obtained spectra before and after UV exposure were assigned by literature study on similar compounds and factor group analysis (FGA). The average grain size of the films was estimated by the Scherrer equation from the diffractograms obtained by XRD. Average grain size was shown to decrease with increasing deposition pressure. The experimental diffraction patterns were compared to reference patterns of yttrium hydrides and yttria in addition to theoretical patterns of different YHO structures. Raman and XRD showed possible hydrogen distortion after UV-illumination performed in Ar atmosphere and the possibility of multiple crystal structures present.
