Materials exhibiting reversible hydrogen adsorption with high gravimetric and volumetric capacities are sought for use in on-board storage systems of hydrogen fuel cell-powered vehicles. Microporous metal-org. frameworks with high internal surface areas ha ...
Complex hydrides such as LiBH4 and LiNH2 exceed the gravimetric hydrogen density of transition metal hydrides by one order of magnitude. However, hydrogen in complex hydrides is covalently bound and arranged in subunits e.g. [NH2]- and [BH4] - with a fixed ...
This study compares the structure and decomposition behaviors of theα,β, and γ polymorphs of Ca(BH 4) 2 for hydrogen storage. Samples with different polymorphic contents are characterized using powder X-ray diffraction and vibrational spectroscopy. Decompo ...
An integrated system of a microreformer and a carrier allowing for syngas generation from liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) for micro-SOFC application is discussed. The microreformer with an overall size of 12.7 mm × 12.7 mm × 1.9 mm is fabricated with micro-e ...
The decomposition pathway is crucial for the applicability of LiBH 4 as a hydrogen storage material. We discuss and compare the different decomposition pathways of LiBH 4 according to the thermodynamic parameters and show the experimental ways to realize t ...
The hydrogen absorption of sodium intercalated fullerenes (Na xC60) was determined and compared to pure fullerenes (C60). Up to 3.5 mass% hydrogen can reversibly be absorbed in Na xC60 at 200 °C and a hydrogen pressure of 200 bar. The absorbed amount of hy ...
Hydrogen sensing is essential to ensure safety in near-future zero-emission fuel cell powered vehicles. Here, we present a novel hydrogen sensor based on the resonant frequency change of a nanoelectromechanical clamped-clamped beam. The beam is coated with ...
The direct and solvent-free synthesis of yttrium borohydride was achieved by reactive ball milling of yttrium hydride in diborane/hydrogen atmosphere. The product contains only the solid elemental hydride as remaining contaminant. Yields above 75% were obt ...
The decomposition pathway is crucial for the applicability of LiBH 4 as a hydrogen storage material. We discuss and compare the different decomposition pathways of LiBH 4 according to the thermodynamic parameters and show the experimental ways to realize t ...
We experimentally prove the viability of the concept of the double-heterostructure quantum well InAlN/GaN high-electron-mobility transistor (HEMT) for the device higher robustness and reliability. In the single quantum well InAlN/GaN HEMTs, the intrinsic c ...
