Abstract
Xβray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) is used for investigating the valence state of the chemical elements present in 25.5 wt.% CeO~2~β2.5 Y~2~O~3~β72 ZrO~2~ plasmaβsprayed coatings as a function of the deposition temperature. Unlike the other chemical elements, cerium changes its valence state during and after the spraying process. The analysis of Ce 3d binding energies and satellite structures shows that CeO~2~ after spraying is either partially reduced to Ce(III) at low deposition temperature, or remains essentially unchanged at high deposition temperature. In both cases, the presence of ZrO~2βx~ suboxides is found, which does not depend apparently on the cooling rate.

Study of an amorphous phase in plasma-sprayed hydroxyapatite (HA) coatings is important owing to its unique characteristics and nonnegligible amount of the amorphous phase compared to crystalline HA. However, little is known about the component parts of an amorphous phase. It is known that amorphous
## Abstract The structure and phase composition of HAp coatings deposited onto Ti6Al4V coupons (50x20x2mm) by atmospheric plasma spraying (APS) were studied by laserβRaman spectroscopy, ^31^Pβ and ^1^HβMASβNMR and 2Dβ^31^P/^1^H HETCORβCPβNMR spectroscopy, and XRD with Rietveld refinement. The sampl
