Rational design of Nb-based alloys for hydrogen separation: A first principles study
We have investigated the effect of alloying metal elements on hydrogen solubility and mechanical integrity of Nb-based alloys, Nb15M1 (where M = Ca–Zn, Ge), using first principles-based calculations. In general, the chemical interaction between the interstitial H and metal is weakened as the alloyin...
