Hydrogen was generated by the reaction of metal hydride with water. The variation of hydrogen generation with the kind of powders (milled $MgH_2$, and $MgH_2$ milled with various contents of MgO, $MgCl_2$ or $Ni+Nb_2O_5$) was investigated. $MgH_2$ powder with a hydrogen content of 6.05 wt% from Aldrich Company was used. Hydrogen is generated by the reaction of Mg as well as $MgH_2$ with water, resulting in the formation of byproduct $Mg(OH)_2$. For about 5 min of reaction time, milled $95%MgH_2+5%MgO$ has the highest hydrogen generation rate among milled $MgH_2+x%MgO$ (x=0, 5, 10, 15 and 20) samples. Milled $90%MgH_2+10%MgCl_2$ has the highest hydrogen generation rate among all the samples.

A 71.5 wt%Mg-23.5 wt%Ni-5 wt%$Fe_2O_3$ (Mg-23.5Ni-$5Fe_2O_3$) sample was prepared by a quite simple process, reactive mechanical grinding, and its hydriding and dehydriding properties were then investigated. The reactive mechanical grinding of Mg with Ni and $Fe_2O_3$ is considered to facilitate nucleation and shorten the diffusion distances of the hydrogen atoms. After the hydriding-dehydriding cycling, the Mg-23.5Ni-$5Fe_2O_3$ sample contained $Mg_2Ni$ phase. Expansion and contraction of the hydride-forming materials (Mg and $Mg_2Ni$) with the hydriding and dehydriding reactions are also considered to increase the hydriding and dehydriding rates of the mixture by forming defects and cracks leading to the fragmentation of the particles. The temperature dependence of the hydriding rate of the sample is discussed.

The cycling characteristics of $MgH_2$ made by hydriding chemical vapor deposition method have been investigated. The particle size of $MgH_2$ made by HCVD was about $1{\mu}m$. The cycling experiment was performed by measuring hydrogen quantity absorbed at 673 K and under 35 atm of hydrogen pressure for 30 min. Up to 3 cycles the hydrogen storage capacity increased, but from 4 to 6 cycles the hydrogen storage capacity decreased rapidly. During this cycling test the particle size increased gradually from $1{\mu}m$ to $6{\mu}m$. This increase was due to sintering by the high reaction temperature and the heat of reaction during hydrogen absorption. From 7 to 30 cycles, the hydrogen storage capacity was maintained at 5.8 wt%. Even after 30 cycles, the plateau pressure was constant.

Hydrogen has a high potential to be a renewable substitute for fossil fuels, because of its high gravimetric energy density and environment friendliness. In particular, Magnesium have attracted much interest since their hydrogen capacity exceeds that of known metal hydrides. One of the approaches to improve the kinetic is addition of metal oxide. In this paper, the effect of $Fe_2O_3$ concentration on the kinetics of Mg hydrogen absorption reaction was investigated. $MgH_x-Fe_2O_3$ composites have been synthesized by hydrogen induced mechanical alloying. The powder synthesized was characterized by XRD, SEM and simultaneous TG, DSC analysis. The hydrogenation behaviors were evaluated by using a sievert's type automatic PCT apparatus. Absorption and desorption kinetics of Mg catalyzed with 5,10 mass% $Fe_2O_3$ are determined at 423, 473, 523, 573, 623K.

Pure $MgH_2$ was milled under a hydrogen atmosphere (reactive mechanical grinding, RMG). The hydrogen storage properties of the prepared samples were studied at a relatively low temperature of 423 K and were compared with those of pure Mg. The hydriding rate of the Mg was extremely low (0.0008 wt% H/min at n = 4), and the $MgH_2$ after RMG had higher hydriding rates than that of Mg at 423 K under 12 bar $H_2$. The initial hydriding rate of $MgH_2$ after RMG at 423 K under 12 bar $H_2$ was the highest (0.08 wt% H/min) at n = 2. At n = 2, the $MgH_2$ after RMG absorbed 0.39 wt% H for 5 min, and 1.21 wt% H for 60 min at 423K under 12 bar $H_2$. At 573 K under 12 bar $H_2$, the $MgH_2$ after RMG absorbed 4.86 wt% H for 5 min, and 5.52 wt% H for 60 min at n = 2. At 573 K and 423 K under 1.0 bar $H_2$, the $MgH_2$ after RMG and the Mg did not release hydrogen. The decrease in particle size and creation of defects by reactive mechanical grinding are believed to have led to the increase in the hydriding rate of the $MgH_2$ after RMG at a relatively low temperature of 423 K.

In the present work, we selected a polymer, polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF), as an additive to improve the hydrogenation and dehydrogenation properties of Mg. 95 wt% Mg + 5 wt% PVDF (designated Mg-5PVDF) samples were prepared via milling in hydrogen atmosphere (reactive milling), and the hydrogenation and dehydrogenation characteristics of the prepared samples were compared with those of Mg milled in hydrogen atmosphere. The dehydrogenation of magnesium hydride formed in the as-prepared Mg-5PVDF during reactive milling began at 681 K. In the fourth cycle (n=4), the initial hydrogenation rate was 0.75 wt% H/min and the quantity of hydrogen absorbed for 60 min, $H_a$ (60 min), was 3.57 wt% H at 573 K and in 12 bar $H_2$. It is believed that after reactive milling the PVDF became amorphous. The milling of Mg with the PVDF in hydrogen atmosphere is believed to have produced defects and cracks. The fabrication of defects is thought to ease nucleation. The fabrication of cracks is thought to expose fresh surfaces, resulting in an increase in the reactivity of the particles with hydrogen and a decrease in the diffusion distances of hydrogen atoms. As far as we know, this investigation is the first in which a polymer PVDF was added to Mg by reactive milling to improve the hydrogenation and dehydrogenation characteristics of Mg.

본 논문에서는 전력 반도체 소자용 Mg-doped AlN 에피층을 혼합 소스 수소화물 기상 에피택시 방법에 의해 성장하였다. p형 재료로는 Mg을 사용하였다. 소자응용을 위한 기초 기판으로서 역할을 하기 위하여 GaN 에피층이 성장된 기판과 GaN 에피층이 성장되어 패턴이 형성된 사파이어 기판 위에 Mg-doped AlN 에피층을 선택 성장하였다. Mg-doped AlN 에피층의 표면과 결정 구조는 FE-SEM 및 HR-XRD에 의해 조사하였다. XPS 스펙트럼과 라만 스펙트럼 결과로부터 혼합소스 HVPE 방법에 의해 성장된 Mg-doped AlN 에피층은 전력소자 등에 응용이 가능할 것으로 판단된다.
