  • 1. Ecole Polytechnique, C.P. 6079, Station ''A,'' Montreal, Quebec H3C 3A7, Canada

Description

When exposed to ''active hydrogen'' from a microwave discharge, white α-niobium pentoxide becomes gray-black. This reduction product has been examined by several techniques, including Auger electron spectroscopy. It is found that the material within a few tenths of a micrometer from the surface is reduced to niobium dioxide, and that the remaining Nb2O5 remains unchanged
