Zusammenfassung:The emergence of ice formation and accretion presents significant challenges, catalyzing an urgent need for clean and efficient anti-icing solutions. Solar energy, a powerful and sustainable resource, can be integrated with the micronano-structured superhydrophobic surface to enhance anti-icing and deicing performance through the solar photothermal effect, overcoming the limitations of a traditional superhydrophobic surface. Herein, inspired by bamboo and lotus leaves, a synergetic photothermal anti-icing superhydrophobic surface (PASS) has been developed. This was achieved through nanosecond laser ablation and chemical modification, resulting in a surface with remarkable superhydrophobic low adhesion (water contact angle >167°, rolling angle < 2°). The PASS notably extends the freezing time of water droplets to 1056 s and delays frost formation to 47 min at 60% humidity. Moreover, the surface retains its superhydrophobic properties after enduring several rigorous tests. Additionally, the photothermal conversion efficiency reaches up to 67.31%, and the temperature increases to 95.6 °C under 1.5 sun illumination for 600 s in ambient conditions (Tr = 7 °C). The ice melting time is only 120 s under 1 sun illumination at -15 °C. Consequently, the PASS sample stands as a preeminent strategy for anti-icing and deicing pursuits owing to its exceptional photothermal proficiency, superhydrophobicity, and enduring robustness
