Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The presence of iron hydrides in the Earth's interior has been proposed, and it is important to understand the stability and hydrogen content of iron hydrides in order to better understand the water (hydrogen) cycle in the Earth's interior. In this study, neutron diffraction and synchrotron radiation X-ray diffraction experiments under high pressure and high temperature were conducted to clarify the stable phase, hydrogen position, and hydrogen-induced volume expansion coefficient of iron hydrides. As a result, it was found that hydrogen in the hcp phase of iron hydrides is located in the octahedron formed by iron atoms, and that the hydrogen-induced volume expansion coefficient increases with temperature.
