Description

Full text: Aluminum foils of 99.99% purity were charged with hydrogen using a gas plasma method. The nature of the H-vacancy complexes in the Aluminium are investigated experimentally (XRD, INS, SANS, USANS, TEM, SEM and Archimedes technique) and quantitatively. It is shown experimentally and quantitatively that H does not remain in the bulk as dispersed H-vacancy defects, but instead resides within the bulk as H2 - bubbles. These bubbles are formed from the clustering of the H-vacancy complexes and extra vacancies created by the initial 1 keV ions
