Interstitial Hydrogen in Fe/V Superstructures : Lattice Site Location and Thermal Vibration

• We report real space location of hydrogen in single crystalline Fe/V superstructures. Anisotropic strain is quantified versus hydrogen concentration by using the yield of backscattered primary 2 MeV He-4 ions for incidence in different crystallographic directions. From a comparison of ion channeling in combination with H-1(N-15, alpha gamma)C-12 nuclear reaction analysis and Monte Carlo simulations we show that hydrogen is located in octahedral z sites and quantify its vibrational amplitude of 0.2 angstrom.
