In situ measurement of elastic properties of PdH , PdD , and PdT
2003
Abstract The Young’s modulus E of palladium hydride PdH x , deuteride PdD x and tritide PdT x were measured for studying the effect of both hydrogen stoichiometry x and isotope nature. A special technique based on optical detection of flexural modes of a palladium cylindrical microcantilever was adapted to in situ measurements to guarantee the sample homogeneity during the hydriding process. A 10% decrease in E was found between pure polycrystalline palladium and hydride phases. The non linear dependence observed with the H content was discussed in terms of lattice expansion, phonons and electronic properties. Sensitivity of the technique enables to distinguish an isotope effect on E .
Activation process of reversible Pd thin film hydrogen sensors
2013
Abstract Microcantilever-based thin film palladium hydrogen sensors have high selectivity and sensitivity. Reproducibility and accuracy of the sensor performance depend on the activation process of the polycrystalline palladium film deposited on the cantilever. When the hydrogen is in solid solution ( α -phase), the cantilever bending is mostly governed by the residual film stress induced by the swelling at the grain boundaries in the film. When the palladium hydride ( β -phase) starts to be formed, the cantilever undergoes a large deflection due to hydrogen absorption-induced film swelling (10% change in volume). Differences in the phase diagrams of the palladium hydride for two film thick…
Generation, Characterization, and Electrochemical Behavior of the Palladium-Hydride Cluster [Pd3(dppm)3(3-CO)(3-H)]+ (dppm=Bis(diphenylphosphinometha…
2007
Addition of formate on the dicationic cluster [Pd(3)(dppm)(3)(mu(3)-CO)](2+) (dppm=bis(diphenylphosphinomethane) affords quantitatively the hydride cluster [Pd(3)(dppm)(3)(mu(3)-CO)(mu(3)-H)](+). This new palladium-hydride cluster has been characterised by (1)H NMR, (31)P NMR and UV/Vis spectroscopy and MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry. The unambiguous identification of the capping hydride was made from (2)H NMR spectroscopy by using DCO(2) (-) as starting material. The mechanism of the hydride complex formation was investigated by UV/Vis stopped-flow methods. The kinetic data are consistent with a two-step process involving: 1) host-guest interactions between HCO(2) (-) and [Pd(3)(dppm)(3)(mu(3…
