This review discusses modern developments in CO2 surface chem. by focusing on the work published since the original review by H.J.  Freund and M.W.  Roberts two decades ago (Surface Science Reports 25 (1996) 225-273).  It includes relevant fundamentals pertaining to the topics covered in that earlier review, such as conventional metal and metal oxide surfaces and CO2 interactions thereon.  While UHV spectroscopy has routinely been applied for CO2 gas-solid interface anal., the present work goes further by describing surface-CO2 interactions under elevated CO2 pressure on non-oxide surfaces, such as zeolites, sulfides, carbides and nitrides.  Furthermore, it describes addnl. salient in situ techniques relevant to the resoln. of the interfacial chem. of CO2, notably IR spectroscopy and state-of-the-art theor. methods, currently used in the resoln. of solid and sol. carbonate species in liq.-water vapor, liq.-solid and liq.-liq. interfaces.  These techniques are directly relevant to fundamental, natural and technol. settings, such as heterogeneous and environmental catalysis and CO2 sequestration.

Polyethylene was used as a model org. host material for thin copper sulfide film formation.  Adsorption-diffusion method was used which utilized consecutive exposure of polyethylene to polythionic acid followed by aq. Cu(II/I) soln.  Several cryst. copper sulfide phases were obtained in synthesized samples and elucidated using X-ray diffraction.  Surface chem. compn. detd. using XPS showed the presence of copper sulfides in combination with copper hydroxide.  Thickness of the composite material films ranged from several microns to ∼18 μm and depended on the Cu(II/I) exposure time.  Band gap of the materials obtained was measured and ranged from 1.88 to 1.17 eV.  Importantly, heating these complex copper sulfide cryst. phase contg. films at 100 °C in inert atm. invariably resulted in a single copper sulfide, anilite (Cu1.75S), phase.  Anilite possesses a bandgap of 1.36 eV and has demonstrated excellent photovoltaic properties.  Thus, the method described in this work can be used for a low cost large scale composite thin film photovoltaic material deposition based on anilite as photoactive material.

XRD data showed a single, α-Ag2S (acanthite), cryst. phase present while surface and bulk chem. analyses, performed using XPS and EDS spectroscopies, showed 2:1 Ag:S ratio.  Direct and indirect bandgaps obtained from Tauc plots were 1.3 and 2.3 eV, resp.  Detailed surface chem. anal. showed 3 distinct S species with majority component due to the Ag2S chem. bonds and minority components due to 2 types of O-S bonds.  Cond. of the resulting composite material was shown to change with the reaction time thus enabling to obtain controlled cond. composite material.  The synthesis method presented is based on the low soly. of Ag2S and is potentially green, no byproduct producing, as all Ag2S nucleated outside the host material can be recycled into the process via dissolving it in HNO3.

A two-stage process used to deposit these thin films involves (a) selenization in 0.1 M K2SeS2O6 at pH 2.15 and 60°C followed by (b) treatment with 0.34 M Cu(II) and 0.06 M Cu(I) salt soln. at 80°C.  Resulting chem. and phys. properties of CuxSe films were investigated using XRD, XPS, SEM, and sheet resistivity measurements.  XRD data showed a complex mixt. of CuxSe phases with peaks due to the elemental Se present at longer exposures.  Thin film bulk elemental compn. varied with the exposure time whereas XPS anal. showed the surface to be slightly copper enriched.  Addnl., mostly Cu-Se bonds were obsd. on the surface with minor oxidn. products.  SEM cross-sectional anal. showed distinct CuxSe film formation on PA 6 surface with thickness of ∼1-5 μm.  A sheet resistance of 150 ± 10 Ω/☐ was achieved after 120 min of selenization for all samples and remained const. after longer exposures.

Ag-doped ZnO powders were prepd. directly from an aq. soln. of zinc acetate dihydrate and AgNO3 in the presence of poly(ethylene oxide)-b-poly(propylene oxide), (PEO)19-b-(PPO)3, and NaOH at 70°.  The ZnO powders had an urchin-like shape without any dopant and this turned to an agglomerated rod-like structure when the Ag loading was ≤0.5 mol%.  If the Ag content was further increased, the urchin-like shape reappeared.  This may occur because the Ag aggregates at the grain boundary.  The finding that the diam. of the urchin-like shape decreases as the Ag concns. increase, can be explained by the pinning effect of the Ag particles as obstacles that inhibit the grain migration and grain growth.  An increase of the photocatalytic efficiency for degrading methylene blue increases with the Ag loading up to 1.0 mol% while the best of the antibacterial activity against Staphylococcus aureus was found at 0.5-0.8 mol% of Ag.  However, the different Ag loadings in the ZnO powders had no effect on the antibacterial effect on Escherichia coli.
