Deuteride Precipitation and Decomposition in the Single Crystal Palladium-Deuterium System
Abstract
dc:descriptionThe effect of dislocations on deuteride formation in the Pd-D system has also been investigated with SANS measurements. High densities of dislocations were introduced into the deformed sample by cycling across the deuteride miscibility gap. Deformation via cycling not only leads to a more finely dispersed microstructure during both absorption and desorption, but also alters the observed habit plane of the large deuteride plate; (100) for the well-annealed Pd matrix and (110) for the deformed Pd matrix.
