Quasielastic neutron scattering (QENS) and neutron powder diffraction of the complex transition metalhydrides Li
MoH
and Li
NbH were measured in a temperature range of 10-300 K to study their structures and dynamics, especially the dynamics of the hydrogen atoms. These hydrides contain unusual ninefold H coordinated complex ions (MoH
or NbH
) and hydride ions (H
). A QENS signal appeared 
150 K due to the relaxation of H atoms. The intermediate scattering functions derived from the QENS spectra are well fitted by a stretched exponential function called the Kohlrausch-Williams-Watts functions with a small stretching exponent 
0.3-0.4, suggesting a wide relaxation time distribution. The 
dependence of the elastic incoherent structure factor is reproduced by the rotational diffusion of MH
(M = Mo or Nb) anions. The results are well supported by a van Hove analysis for the motion of H atoms obtained using first-principles molecular dynamics calculations. We conclude that the wide relaxation time distribution of the MH rotation is due to the positional disorder of the surrounding Li ions and a unique rotation with MH anion deformation (pseudorotation).

)ナノ粒子を分散したナノ流体の準弾性中性子散乱測定(QENS)およびパルス磁場勾配核磁気共鳴分析(PFGNMR)を行った。研究目的は、このナノ流体の熱伝導率が理論値を超えて増加するメカニズムを解明することだった。得られた実験結果は、SiOナノ粒子の周りの液体分子の運動が非常に制限されているため、SiOナノ粒子の添加により、エチレングリコール水溶液中の液体分子の自己拡散係数が低下していることを示す。そして温度一定の条件で、SiOナノ流体中で、液体分子の自己拡散係数が減少するにつれて、熱伝導率が増加した。

被引用回数：79 パーセンタイル：91.62(Multidisciplinary Sciences)Perovskite CHNHPbI exhibits outstanding photovoltaic performances, but the understanding of the atomic motions remains inadequate even though they take a fundamental role in transport properties. Here, we present a complete atomic dynamic picture consisting of molecular jumping rotational modes and phonons, which is established by carrying out high-resolution time-of-flight quasi-elastic and inelastic neutron scattering measurements in a wide energy window ranging from 0.0036 to 54 meV on a large single crystal sample, respectively. The ultrafast orientational disorder of molecular dipoles, activated at approximately 165 K, acts as an additional scattering source for optical phonons as well as for charge carriers. It is revealed that acoustic phonons dominate the thermal transport, rather than optical phonons due to sub-picosecond lifetimes. These microscopic insights provide a solid standing point, on which perovskite solar cells can be understood more accurately and their performances are perhaps further optimized.
