Abstract
AbstractFilms of SrYb0.05Zr0.095O2.975 were prepared by sol‐gel processing. Water vapour pressure/hydrogen composition isotherms were recorded ex‐situ comprising pressures between 0 and 84.5 kPa and temperatures between 873 and 1073 K. Nuclear Resonance Reaction Analysis (NRRA) was used to determine the hydrogen concentration and, in addition, depth profiles of hydrogen concentration. The chemical potential of interstitial hydrogen in oxides could be determined; from its temperature dependence thermodynamical constants were calculated. We observe two hydrogen fractions with a site energy difference of 20 kJ/mol. A size effect of the thermodynamic properties is observed below a thickness of 350 nm: nanofilms exhibit higher solubility than bulk material.
