For example, hydrogen is most abundant as impurity in thin film materials – depending on the deposition process – and has great influence on the chemical, physical and electrical properties of many materials. Existing bulk reference materials (RMs) are not suited for surface sensitive analytical methods like elastic recoil detection analysis (ERDA) or nuclear reaction analysis (NRA). To overcome this serious lack of (certified) thin-layer reference materials for the determination of hydrogen in the near-surface region (1–2 µm depth), we produced stable, homogeneous amorphous silicon layers on Si-wafers (aSi:H–Si) by means of chemical vapour deposition (CVD), while about 10% of hydrogen was incorporated in the Si-layer. Homogeneity and stability were proved by NRA whereas traceability of reference values has been assured by an international interlaboratory comparison.

A1 - Reinholz, Uwe A1 - Weise, Hans-Peter T1 - Analyses of hydrogen in quartz and in sapphire using depth profiling by ERDA at atmospheric pressure: Comparison with resonant NRA and SIMS N2 - Hydrogen is present in anhydrous materials as a result of their synthesis and of their environment during conservation. IBA provides techniques to measure H concentration depth profiles allowing to identify various aspects of the materials including the history of objects such as gemstones used in cultural heritage. A newly established ERDA set-up, using an external microbeam of alpha particles, has been developed to study hydrated near-surface layers in quartz and sapphire by non-destructive H depth profiling in different atmospheres. The samples were also analysed using resonant NRA and SIMS.

A1 - Aßmus, Kristin A1 - Hübner, Wolfgang T1 - The effect of hydrogen on the deterioration of austenitic steels during wear at cryogenic temperature N2 - Hydrogen represents an important alternative to fossil fuels. Hydrogen storage is possible as a gas, at room temperature (RT) at about 20 MPa pressure, and in a liquefied form, at cryogenic temperatures of about 20 K. The latter form is particularly attractive due to the possibility of stocking a large quantity of hydrogen within a small volume. In moving parts (e.g. of transport vehicles) cryogenic temperature and the presence of hydrogen strongly enhance wear processes and subsequently component failure. The present work deals with the deformation behaviour and the microstructural deterioration of austenitic CrNi- and CrMn high nitrogen-steels during friction in liquid hydrogen at 20 K. The modified microstructure within the wear scar is studied by scanning electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction methods. Diffraction studies of wear scars reveal the importance of twinning during deformation at 20 K. This increase of twinning can be attributed to a hydrogen-induced reduction of stacking fault energy (SFE) in the austenitic steels. Interactions between twin boundaries and planar dislocation structures along with locally increased stresses led to the formation of extensive crack networks. The amount of hydrogen-induced surface cracks depends on the alloy composition and is not necessarily correlated to the wear resistance of the austenitic steels.
