Abstract

Hydrogen interaction with the Ti (0001) single crystal surface was investigated with Nuclear Reaction Analysis (NRA) using 1H (15N, αγ) 12C. In contrast to thin polycrystalline Ti-films, molecular H2 adsorbs only with a small integral sticking coefficient on the single crystal surface even at 120 K and the H coverage saturates at 1.0 ML. Admission of atomic H at this temperature results in further hydrogen uptake, which saturates after absorption of an additional monolayer of H into subsurface sites. The H diffusion remains restricted up to240 K, causing accumulation of absorbed H in a shallow region of only7 nm depth beneath the surface under atomic H exposure conditions. With a maximum of10 at.% the H-concentration in this thin hydride overlayer remains far below the bulk solubility limit of TiH2. Only above240 K the observed H distributions along the concentration gradient into the bulk are in agreement with extrapolated diffusion data for α-Ti.
