  2. 1. Neutron spectroscopy studies of vibrational and diffusional dynamics in organometal halide and oxyhydride perovskites

    Author : Rasmus Lavén; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Metal halide perovskites; perovskites; phonons; quasielastic neutron scattering; inelastic neutron scattering; oxyhydrides; hydrogen dynamics.; diffusion;

    Abstract : This thesis deals with inelastic and quasielastic neutron scattering studies on the dynamical properties of the organometal halide perovskite system MA1-xFAxPbI3 (MA = methylammonium; FA = formamidinium) and of the layered perovskite-type oxyhydride SrVO2H. These materials systems are of high interest for their excellent photovoltaic performance (MA1-xFAxPbI3) and hydride-ion conductivity (SrVO2H) and concomitant promise for various technological devices; however, the local structure and dynamics underpinning these materials properties remain unclear.

  4. 2. On the defective origin of conductive and structural properties of oxides: insights from first principles

    Author : Anders Lindman; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; point defects; thermodynamic modeling; proton conductors; oxyhydrides; density-functional theory; BaZrO3; polarons; grain boundaries; space charges; oxides;

    Abstract : Oxides are versatile materials with applications in many different research fields; especially those related to clean energy technologies, such as fuel cells, batteries and solar panels. Many functional properties of these materials derive from lattice imperfections, or defects, and a lot of effort has been put into fine tuning these materials by modifying their structure on the atomic scale.

  5. 3. Structure-dynamics relationships in perovskite oxyhydrides and alkali silanides

    Author : Carin Eklöf-Österberg; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; hydrogen storage material; long range diffusion; oxyhydride; neutron scattering; localized motion; hydride ion conduction; hydrogen dynamics;

    Abstract : This thesis focuses on investigations of the local structure and dynamics of two classes of hydrogen-containing, energy relevant, materials; perovskite type oxyhydrides BaTiO3-xHx and alkali silanides ASiH3 (A = K and Rb). In the area of oxyhydrides, which are of relevance for the development of electrolytes in fuel cells and batteries, the aim is to elucidate the dynamics and electronic character of the hydrogen species in the materials.

  6. 4. Mechanistic aspects of structure and dynamics in perovskite type oxyhydrides and alkali silanides

    Author : Carin Österberg; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; inelastic neutron scattering; hydrogen dynamics; mean square displacement; quasielastic neutron scattering; localized motion; oxyhydride; energy materials;

    Abstract : This Thesis concerns experimental studies of the two alkali silanides ASiH3 (A = K and Rb) and the recently discovered perovskite type oxyhydrides BaTiO3-xHx (x = 0.14 and 0.40). READ MORE

  7. 5. Hydrogen incorporation in Zintl phases and transition metal oxides- new environments for the lightest element in solid state chemistry

    Author : Reji Nedum Kandathil; Ulrich Häussermann; Michael A. Hayward; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Zintl phases; metal hydrides; transition metal oxyhydrides; XRPD; NPD; Rietveld refinement; Materials Chemistry; materialkemi;

    Abstract : This PhD thesis presents investigations of hydrogen incorporation in Zintl phases and transition metal oxides. Hydrogenous Zintl phases can serve as important model systems for fundamental studies of hydrogen-metal interactions, while at the same time hydrogen-induced chemical structure and physical property changes provide exciting prospects for materials science.
