Pd-capped gasochromic metal hydrides can be used as sensing layer in fiber optic hydrogen detectors. Using a sensing layer consisting of a 50 nm thick Mg70Ti30 film capped with a 30 nm Pd catalytic layer we demonstrate a drop in reflectance by a factor of 10, at hydrogen levels d ...
Mg2NiH4 thin films have been prepared by activated reactive evaporation in a molecular beam epitaxy system equipped with an atomic hydrogen source. The optical reflection spectra and the resistivity of the films are measured in situ during deposition. In situ grown Mg2NiH 4 appea ...
