Abstract
We show that 2D ^{2}H NMR spectra enable valuable insights into the nature of an ice-water equilibrium in nanoscale confinement, which extends over a broad temperature range. In particular, 2D ^{2}H NMR line-shape analysis allows us to determine the timescale on which the coexisting ice and water phases exchange molecules. For D_{2}O in a silica nanopore with a diameter of 5.4 nm, we find that the residence time of a water molecule in either phase is characterized by an NMR exchange time of τ_{X}=5.7 ms at 220 K. Thus, the ice-water equilibrium is highly dynamic, which is an important aspect for an understanding of deeply cooled confined and, possibly, bulk waters.

Abstract
The discovery of peculiar quasi-liquid layers on ice surfaces marks a major breakthrough in ice-related sciences, as the facile tuning of the reactions and morphologies of substances in contact with these layers make ice-assisted chemistry a low-cost, environmentally benign, and ubiquitous methodology for the synthesis of nanomaterials with improved functionality. Ice-templated synthesis of porous materials offers the appealing features of rapid self-organization and remarkable property changes arising from confinement effects and affords materials that have found a diverse range of applications such as batteries, supercapacitors, and gas separation. Moreover, much attention has been drawn to the acceleration of chemical reactions and transformations on the ice surface due to the freeze concentration effect, fast self-diffusion of surface water, and modulated surface potential energy. Some of these results are related to the accumulation of inorganic contaminants in glaciers and the blockage of natural gas pipelines. As an emerging theme in nanomaterial design, the dimension-controlled synthesis of hybrid materials with unprecedentedly enhanced properties on ice surfaces has attracted much interest. However, a deep understanding of quasi-liquid layer characteristics (and hence, the development of cutting-edge analytical technologies with high surface sensitivity) is required to achieve the current goal of ice-assisted chemistry, namely the preparation of tailor-made materials with the desired properties.

Abstract

Insights
into energy flow dynamics at ice surfaces are essential
for understanding chemical dynamics relevant to atmospheric and geographical
sciences. Here, employing ultrafast surface-specific spectroscopy,
we report the interfacial vibrational dynamics of ice Ih. A comparison to liquid water surfaces reveals accelerated vibrational
energy relaxation and dissipation at the ice surface for hydrogen-bonded
OH groups. In contrast, free-OH groups sticking into the vapor phase
exhibit substantially slower vibrational dynamics on ice. The acceleration
and deceleration of vibrational dynamics of these different OH groups
at the ice surface are attributed to enhanced intermolecular coupling
and reduced rotational mobility, respectively. Our results highlight
the unique properties of free-OH groups on ice, putatively linked
to the high catalytic activities of ice surfaces.

Abstract
Water in a confined environment has a combination of fewer available configurations and restricted mobility. Both affect the spectroscopic signature. In this work, the spectroscopic signature of water in confined environments is discussed in the context of competing models for condensed water: (1) as a system of intramolecular coupled molecules or (2) as a network with intermolecular dipole-dipole coupled O-H stretches. Two distinct environments are used: the confined asymmetric environment at the ice surface and the near-isolated environment of water in an infrared transparent matrix. Both the spectroscopy and the environment are described followed by a perspective discussion of implications for the two competing models. Despite being a small molecule, water is relatively complex; perhaps not surprisingly the results support a model that blends inter- and intramolecular coupling. The frequency, and therefore the hydrogen-bond strength, appears to be a function of donor-acceptor interaction and of longer-range dipole-dipole alignment in the hydrogen-bonded network. The O-H dipole direction depends on the local environment and reflects intramolecular O-H stretch coupling.

Abstract
Ion/surface collisions in the ultralow- to low-energy (1-100-eV) window represent an excellent technique for investigation of the properties of condensed molecular solids at low temperatures. For example, this technique has revealed the unique physical and chemical processes that occur on the surface of ice, versus the liquid and vapor phases of water. Such instrument-dependent research, which is usually performed with spectroscopy and mass spectrometry, has led to new directions in studies of molecular materials. In this review, we discuss some interesting results and highlight recent developments in the area. We hope that access to the study of molecular solids with extreme surface specificity, as described here, will encourage investigators to explore new areas of research, some of which are outlined in this review.

Abstract
Ice surfaces offer a unique chemical environment in which reactions occur quite differently from those in liquid water or gas phases. In this article, we examine the basic properties of ice surfaces below the surface premelting temperature and discuss some of the recent investigations carried out on reactions at the ice surfaces. The static and dynamic properties of an ice surface as a reaction medium, such as its structure, molecule diffusion and proton transfer dynamics, and the surface preference of hydronium and hydroxide ions, are discussed in relation to the reactivity of the surface.

Abstract
The process of electron localization on a cluster of 32 water molecules at 20, 50, and 300 K is unraveled using ab initio molecular dynamics simulations. In warm, liquid clusters, the excess electron relaxes from an initial diffuse and weakly bound structure to an equilibrated, strongly bound species within 1.5 ps. In contrast, in cold, glassy clusters the relaxation processes is not completed and the electron becomes trapped in a metastable surface state with an intermediate binding energy. These results question the validity of extrapolations of the properties of solvated electrons from cold clusters of increasing size to the liquid bulk.

Abstract
We have examined the elementary molecular processes responsible for proton transfer and HD exchange in thin ice films for the temperature range of 100-140 K. The ice films are made to have a structure of a bottom D(2)O layer and an upper H(2)O layer, with excess protons generated from HCl ionization trapped at the D(2)OH(2)O interface. The transport behavior of excess protons from the interfacial layer to the ice film surface and the progress of the HD exchange reaction in water molecules are examined with the techniques of low energy sputtering and Cs(+) reactive ion scattering. Three major processes are identified: the proton hopping relay, the hop-and-turn process, and molecular diffusion. The proton hopping relay can occur even at low temperatures (<120 K), and it transports a specific portion of embedded protons to the surface. The hop-and-turn mechanism, which involves the coupling of proton hopping and molecule reorientation, increases the proton transfer rate and causes the HD exchange of water molecules. The hop-and-turn mechanism is activated at temperatures above 125 K in the surface region. Diffusional mixing of H(2)O and D(2)O molecules additionally contributes to the HD exchange reaction at temperatures above 130 K. The hop-and-turn and molecular diffusion processes are activated at higher temperatures in the deeper region of ice films. The relative speeds of these processes are in the following order: hopping relay>hop and turn>molecule diffusion.

Abstract
The uptake of NH3 and the heterogeneous reaction of NH3 + HOBr --> products on ice surfaces at 190 K have been investigated in a flow reactor coupled with a differentially pumped quadrupole mass spectrometer. The uptake coefficient gammat for NH3 was determined to be (3.8 +/- 1.4) x 10(-4) on ice films at 189.8 K, for a partial pressure of NH3 in the range of 7.0 x 10(-7) to 3.8 x 10(-6) torr. The amount of NH3 uptake on the ice film was determined to be >2.9 x 10(15) molecules/cm(2), based on the total ice surface area at 189.2 K. The heterogeneous reaction of NH3 + HOBr on ice surfaces has been studied at 190 K. The reaction probability gammat was determined to be (5.3 +/- 2.2) x 10(-4) and was found to vary insignificantly as HOBr surface coverage changes from 2.1 x 10(13) to 2.1 x 10(14) molecules/cm(2). A reaction pathway is proposed on the basis of experimental observations.

Abstract
H/D isotopic exchange between H(2)O and D(2)O molecules was studied at the surface of ice films at 90-140 K by the technique of Cs(+) reactive ion scattering. Ice films were deposited on a Ru(0001) substrate in different compositions of H(2)O and D(2)O and in various structures to study the kinetics of isotopic exchange. H/D exchange was very slow on an ice film at 95-100 K, even when H(2)O and D(2)O were uniformly mixed in the film. At 140 K, H/D exchange occurred in a time scale of several minutes on the uniform mixture film. Kinetic measurement gave the rate coefficient for the exchange reaction, k(140 K)=1.6(+/-0.3) x 10(-19) cm(2) molecule(-1) s(-1) and k(100 K)< or =5.7(+/-0.5) x 10(-21) cm(2) molecule(-1) s(-1) and the Arrhenius activation energy, E(a)> or =9.8 kJ mol(-1). Addition of HCl on the film to provide excess protons greatly accelerated the isotopic exchange reaction such that it went to completion very quickly at the surface. The rapid reaction, however, was confined within the first bilayer (BL) of the surface and did not readily propagate to the underlying sublayer. The isotopic exchange in the vertical direction was almost completely blocked at 95 K, and it slowly occurred only to a depth of 3 BLs from the surface at 140 K. Thus, the proton transfer was highly directional. The lateral proton transfer at the surface was attributed to the increased mobility of protonic defects at the molecularly disordered and activated surface. The slow, vertical proton transfer was probably assisted by self-diffusion of water molecules.

Abstract
In these experiments, a few bilayers of D(2)O were vapor-deposited on a pure crystalline H(2)O ice film or an ice film doped with a small amount of HCl. Upon deposition, H/D isotopic exchange quickly converted the D(2)O layer into an HDO-rich mixture layer. Infrared absorption spectroscopy followed the changes of the HDO from the initial HDO mixture layer to HDO isolated in the H(2)O ice film. This was possible because isolated HDO in H(2)O ice has a unique, sharp peak in the O-D stretch region that can be distinguished from the broad peak due to the initial HDO mixture layer. The absorbance of isolated HDO displayed first-order kinetics and was attributed to diffusion of HDO from the HDO-rich mixture layer into the underlying H(2)O ice film. While negligible diffusion was observed for pure ice films and for ice films with HCl concentrations up to 1 x 10(-4) mole fraction, diffusion of HDO occurred for higher concentrations of (2-20) x 10(-4) mole fraction HCl with a concentration-independent rate constant. The diffusion under these conditions followed Arrhenius behavior for T = 135-145 K yielding E(a) = 25 +/- 5 kJ/mol. The mechanism for the HDO diffusion involves either (i) molecular self-diffusion or (ii) long-range H/D diffusion by a series of multiple proton hop and orientational turn steps. While these spectroscopic results compare favorably with recent studies of molecular self-diffusion in low-temperature ice films, the diffusion results from all the ice film studies at low temperatures (ca. T < 170 K) differ from earlier bulk ice studies at higher temperatures (ca. T > 220 K). A comparison and discussion of the various diffusion studies are included in this report.

Abstract
Thermal desorption spectroscopy is employed to examine transport mechanisms in structured, nanoscale films consisting of labeled amorphous solid water (ASW, H(2)(18)O, H(2)(16)O) and organic spacer layers (CCl(4), CHCl(3)) prior to ASW crystallization (T approximately 150-160 K). Self-transport is studied as a function of both the ASW layer and the organic spacer layer film thickness, and the effectiveness of these spacer layers as a bulk diffusion "barrier" is also investigated. Isothermal desorption measurements of structured films are combined with gas uptake measurements (CClF(2)H) to investigate water self-transport and changes in ASW film morphology during crystallization and annealing. CCl(4) desorption is employed as a means to investigate the effects of ASW film thickness and heating schedule on vapor-phase transport. Combined, these results demonstrate that the interlayer mixing observed near T approximately 150-160 K is inconsistent with a mechanism involving diffusion through a dense phase; rather, we propose that intermixing occurs via vapor-phase transport through an interconnected network of cracks/fractures created within the ASW film during crystallization. Consequently, the self-diffusivity of ASW prior to crystallization (T approximately 150-160 K) is significantly smaller than that expected for a "fragile" liquid, indicating that water undergoes either a glass transition or a fragile-to-strong transition at a temperature above 160 K.

Abstract
The interaction of CsF with multilayered water has been investigated with metastable impact electron spectroscopy (MIES) and ultraviolet photoelectron spectroscopy with HeI (UPS(HeI)). We have studied the emission from the ionization of H2O states 1b1, 3a1, and 1b2; of Cs5p and of F2p. We have prepared CsF-H2O interfaces, namely, CsF layers on thin films of multilayered water and vice versa; they were annealed between 80 and about 280 K. Up to about 100 K, a closed CsF layer can be deposited on H2O and vice versa; no interpenetration of the two components H2O and CsF could be observed. Above 110 K, CsF (H2O) layers deposited on thin H2O (CsF) films (stoichiometry CsF.1.5H2O) gradually transform into a mixed layer containing F, Cs, and H2O species. When annealing, H2O molecules can be detected up to 200 K from the mixed F-Cs-H2O layer (while for pure H2O desorption is essentially complete at 165 K); a water network is not formed under these conditions, and all H2O molecules are involved in bonding with Cs+ and F- ions. When CsF is deposited at 120 K on sufficiently thick water multilayers, full solvation of both F and Cs takes place, even for the species closest to the surface, as long as the stoichiometry remains CsF.(H2O)n with n > 3.

Abstract
Adsorption of hydrogen chloride (HCl) on water ice films is studied in the temperature range of 100-140 K by using Cs+ reactive ion scattering (Cs+ RIS), low energy sputtering (LES), and temperature-programmed-desorption mass spectrometry (TPDMS). At 100 K, HCl on ice partially dissociates to hydronium and chloride ions and the undissociated HCl exists in two distinct molecular states (alpha- and beta-states). Upon heating of the ice films, HCl molecules in the alpha-state desorb at 135-150 K, whereas those in the beta-state first become ionized and then desorb via recombinative reaction of ions at 170 K. An adsorption kinetics study reveals that HCl adsorption into the ionized state is slightly favored over adsorption into the molecular states at 100 K, leading to earlier saturation of the ionized state. Between the two molecular states, the beta-state is formed first, and the alpha-state appears only at high HCl coverage. At 140 K, ionic dissociation of HCl is completed. The resulting hydronium ion can migrate into the underlying sublayer to a depth <4 bilayers, suggesting that the migration is assisted by self-diffusion of water molecules near the surface. When HCl is covered by a water overlayer at 100 K, its ionization efficiency is enhanced, but a substantial portion of HCl remains undissociated as molecules or contact ion pairs. The observation suggests that three-dimensional surrounding by water molecules does not guarantee ionic dissociation of HCl. Complete ionization of HCl requires additional thermal energy to separate the hydronium and chloride ions.
