Abstract

A polycrystalline sample of nearly stoichiometric fcc rhodium hydride was synthesised under high hydrogen pressure and then studied at ambient pressure and 5 K by inelastic neutron scattering in the range of energy transfers 35–380 meV. The fundamental band of optical hydrogen vibrations was shown to consist of a strong peak centred at 74 meV and broadened towards higher energies. The second and third band demonstrated essentially anharmonic behaviour, which is not typical of monohydrides of 3 d- and 4 d-metals with close-packed metal lattices.
