Hydrogen in Intermetallics I is the first of two volumes aiming to
provide atutorial introduction to the general topic of hydrogen in
intermetallic compounds and alloys. In the present volume, a series
of chapters, each written by two experts in the field, gives a
comprehensive review of thefollowing areas: -preparation of
intermetallics and their hydrides on a laboratory and industrial
scale; - thermodynamic properties; -crystal and magnetic structure;
- electronic properties; - heat of formation models; - magnetism
and superconductivity.
The topic of hydrogen in an on metals and alloys is important in a
number ofdisciplines including solid-state physics, materials
science, physical chemistry, and energy technology. This volume
treats the dynamics of hydrogen in intermetallic compounds, surface
properties, kinetics, and applications of metal hydrides in energy
technology. In addition, selected experimental methods are
described. The introductory chapter will enable non-specialists to
gain an overall picture of the field and to appreciate the relevant
scientific issue. The companion volume, Hydrogene in Intermetallic
Compounds I, was published as Vol. 63 of Topics in Applied Physics.
This book fills the gap for concise but comprehensive literature on
this interdisciplinary topic, involving chemical, physical,
biological and engineering challenges. It provides broad coverage
of the most important fields of modern hydrogen technology:
hydrogen properties, production, storage, conversion to power, and
applications in materials science. In so doing, the book covers all
the pertinent materials classes: metal hydrides, inorganic porous
solids, organic materials, and nanotubes. The authors present the
entire view from fundamental research to viable devices and
systems, including the latest scientific results and discoveries,
practical approaches to design and engineering, as well as
functioning prototypes and advanced systems.
