The UK government target of net zero emission by 2050 and the phase-out of passenger cars with internal combustion engine is facing great challenges in the research of alternative energy resources, such as wind and solar energies, batteries and fuel cells. Surface engineering, as an enabling technology in the high value manufacturing sectors, is expected to grow even more strongly in the advent of those industries to build a more sustainableeconomy.There are a few key challenges for the large roll out of those alternative energy resource sectors, such as the performance of the sensors and the lifetime, safety and reliability of the components during their operational condition. The industries are looking for high electrically insolating, corrosion resistive and yet cost effective materials/surfaces in the case of sensor and hydrogen fuel cells applications. We propose to tackle those challenges by exploiting the newly upgraded industrial thin film deposition system (EPSRC strategic equipment grant EP/R02524X/1) together with the industrial partner. This project will aim to deposit and characterise these thin film coatings supported by advanced plasma diagnostics. There are a number of objectives to be achieved:- In depth understanding of the microwave assisted chemical vapour deposition processes, a novel and cost effective method with higher productivity for high quality thin films (EPSRC Priority 21st Century Products and EPSRC priority Sustainable Industries).- The deposition of materials in particular with the new multiple-precursor system.- The use of plasma diagnostics (new scientific feature) for the guidance of the thin film growth (material design, EPSRC priority digital manufacturing)- Characterisation of the thin film in terms of microstructure analyses, dielectric properties and corrosion resistance measurements/assessments.The project outcome will have a direct impact on the industries brought by Industry 4.0 with the smart and multifunction products. Direct and associate impacts are:- Grants for EPSRC and Innovate UK upon the creation of those materials- Good quality publications and conference presence of the school research into this field- There is a direct industry interest to be forged including the OEM of the deposition system (IHI Hauzer Techno Coating)

英国政府到2050年实现净零排放和逐步淘汰内燃机乘用车的目标，在风能和太阳能、电池和燃料电池等替代能源的研究方面面临巨大挑战。表面工程作为高价值制造行业的一项使能技术，预计将随着这些行业的出现而更加强劲地增长，以建立更可持续的经济。这些替代能源行业的大规模推广面临着几个关键挑战，例如传感器的性能以及部件在其运行条件下的寿命、安全性和可靠性。在传感器和氢燃料电池的应用中，各行业都在寻找高电绝缘、耐腐蚀且成本效益高的材料/表面。我们建议通过与工业合作伙伴一起开发新升级的工业薄膜沉积系统(EPSRC战略设备GRANT EP/R02524X/1)来应对这些挑战。该项目将致力于沉积和表征这些由先进的等离子体诊断技术支持的薄膜涂层。有许多目标需要实现：-深入了解微波辅助化学气相沉积过程，一种高质量薄膜的新的、成本效益高的方法(EPSRC优先21世纪产品和EPSRC优先可持续工业)。-材料的沉积，特别是利用新的多前体系统。-使用等离子体诊断(新的科学特征)指导薄膜生长(材料设计，EPSRC优先数字制造)-根据微结构分析对薄膜的表征，介电性能和耐腐蚀性测量/评估。项目结果将直接影响工业4.0带来的智能和多功能产品的行业。直接和相关的影响是：-为EPSRC和Innovate UK提供的赠款创建了这些材料-高质量的出版物和学校在这一领域的研究的会议-有直接的行业利益需要锻造，包括沉积系统的OEM(IHI Hauzer技术涂层)
