Hydrogenography of PdH<sub>x</sub> thin films
Influence of H-induced stress relaxation processes
Hydrogenography is a new optical thin film combinatorial method that follows hydrogenation and determines its associated thermodynamic properties. Due to clamping to the substrate, stresses generated in thin films are larger than in bulk. This must be taken into account for a com

We investigated the influence of the substrate on the thermodynamic properties of metal hydride thin films by hydrogenography, using PdHx as a model system. After appropriate hydrogen cycling, reproducible hydrogenation properties are found at the same equilibrium pressure for al
