Static and dynamic changes induced by adsorption of atomic hydrogen on the NiAl(110) lattice at 130 K have been examined as a function of adsorbate coverage. Adsorbed hydrogen exists in three distinct phases. At low coverages the hydrogen is itinerant because of quantum tunneling between sites and exhibits no observable vibrational modes. Between 0.4 ML and 0.6 ML, substrate mediated interactions produce an ordered superstructure with c(2x2) symmetry, and at higher coverages, hydrogen exists as a disordered lattice gas. This picture of how hydrogen interacts with NiAl(110) is developed from our data and compared to current theoretical predictions.

In order to realize applications of hydrogen-adsorbed graphene, a main issue is how to control hydrogen adsorption/desorption at room temperature. In this study, we demonstrate the possibility to tune hydrogen adsorption on graphene by applying a gat e voltage. The influence of the gate voltage on graphene and its hydrogen adsorption properties was investigated by electrical transport measurements, scanning tunneling microscopy, and density functional theory calculations. We show that more hydrogen adsorbs on graphene with negative gate voltage (p-type doping), compared to that without gate voltage or positive gate voltage (n-type doping). Theoretical calculations explain the gate voltage dependence of hydrogen adsorption as modifications of the adsorption energy and diffusion barrier of hydrogen on graphene by charge doping.
Hydrogen adsorption on graphene can be increased by functionalization with Ti. This requires dispersing Ti islands on graphene as small and dense as possible, in order to increase the number of hydrogen adsorption sites per Ti atom. In this report, w e investigate the morphology of Ti on nanocrystalline graphene and its hydrogen adsorption by scanning tunneling microscopy and thermal desorption spectroscopy, and compare the results with equivalent measurements on single-crystalline graphene. Nanocrystalline graphene consists of extremely small crystal grains of < 5 nm size. Ti atoms preferentially adsorb at the grain boundaries of nanocrystalline graphene and form smaller and denser islands compared to single-crystalline graphene. Surprisingly, however, hydrogen adsorbs less to Ti on nanocrystalline graphene than to Ti on single-crystalline graphene. In particular, hydrogen hardly chemisorbs to 1 ML of Ti on nanocrystalline graphene. This may be attributed to strong bonds between Ti and defects located along the grain boundaries in nanocrystalline graphene. This mechanism might apply to other metals, as well, and therefore our results suggest that when functionalizing graphene by metal atoms for the purpose of hydrogen storage or other chemical reactions, it is important to consider not only the morphology of the resulting surface, but also the influence of graphene on the electronic states of the metal.

The electronic and structural properties of (i) boron doped graphene sheets, and (ii) the chemisorption processes of hydrogen adatoms on the boron doped graphene sheets have been examined by {it ab initio} total energy calculations.
Knowledge of the behavior of hydrogen in metal hydrides is the key for understanding their electronic properties. So far, no experimental methods exist to access these properties beyond 100 GPa, where high-Tc superconductivity emerges. Here, we prese nt an 1H-NMR study of cubic FeH up to 200GPa. We observe a distinct deviation from the ideal metallic behavior between 64 and 110 GPa that suggests pressure-induced H-H interactions. Accompanying ab-initio calculations support this interpretation, as they reveal the formation of an intercalating sublattice of electron density, which enhances the hydrogen contribution to the electronic density of states at the Fermi level. This study shows that pressure induced H-H interactions can occur in metal hydrides at much lower compression and larger H-H distances than previously thought and stimulates an alternative pathway in the search for novel high-temperature superconductors.
We present a detailed ab initio study of the electronic structure and magnetic order of an Fe monolayer on the Ir(001) surface covered by adsorbed oxygen and hydrogen. The results are compared to the clean Fe/Ir(001) system, where recent intensive st udies indicated a strong tendency towards an antiferromagnetic order and complex magnetic structures. The adsorption of an oxygen overlayer significantly increases interlayer distance between the Fe layer and the Ir substrate, while the effect of hydrogen is much weaker. We show that the adsorption of oxygen (and also of hydrogen) leads to a p(2$times $1) antiferromagnetic order of the Fe moments, which is also supported by an investigation based on a disordered local moment state. Simulated scanning tunneling images using the simple Tersoff-Hamann model hint that the proposed p(2$times $1) antiferromagnetic order could be detected even by non-magnetic tips.
