Times Cited Count：1 Percentile：64.83(Geochemistry & Geophysics)The phase relation and crystal structure of FeNiH (D) at high pressures and temperatures up to 12 GPa and 1000 K were clarified by in-situ X-ray and neutron diffraction measurements. Under conditions of the present study, no deuterium atoms occupied tetragonal (
) sites of face-centered cubic (fcc) FeNiD unlike fcc FeH(D). The deuterium-induced volume expansion per deuterium 
was determined as 2.45(4) 
and 3.31(6) for fcc and hcp phases, respectively, which were significantly larger than the corresponding values for FeD. The value slightly increased with increasing temperature. This study suggests that only 10% of nickel in iron drastically changes the behaviors of hydrogen in metal. Assuming that is constant regardless of pressure, the maximum hydrogen content in the Earth's inner core is estimated to be one to two times the amount of hydrogen in the oceans.

Times Cited Count：0 Percentile：0.02(Mineralogy)The Earth's core is believed to contain some light elements because it is 10% less dense than pure Fe under the corresponding pressure and temperature conditions. Hydrogen, a promising candidate among light elements, has phase relations and physical properties that have been investigated mainly for the Fe-H system. This study specifically examined an Fe-Si-H system using in-situ neutron diffraction experiments to investigate the site occupancy of deuterium of hcp-FezSi hydride at 14.7 GPa and 800 K. Results of Rietveld refinement indicate hcp-FeSi hydride as having deuterium (D) occupancy of 0.24(2) exclusively at the interstitial octahedral site in the hcp lattice. The effect on the site occupancy of D by addition of 2.6 wt% Si into Fe (FeSi) was negligible compared to results obtained from an earlier study of an Fe-D system (Machida et al., 2019).

. In the dhcp FeD at 300 K and 4.2 GPa, dissolved D atoms fully occupied the octahedral interstitial sites, slightly displaced from the octahedral centers in the dhcp metal lattice, and the dhcp sequence of close-packed Fe planes contained hcp-stacking faults at 12%. Magnetic moments with 2.11 
0.06 B/Fe-atom aligned ferromagnetically in parallel on the Fe planes.

16 GPa from a CaH-type structure to a high-pressure (high-) phase with Yb at hcp sites and unknown H-positions. Here, we report its complete structure determination by neutron diffraction at 34 GPa. Hydrogen(deuterium) is located at 2
and 2
positions of space group 
, thus forming a high-symmetry "collapsed" close-packed lattice. The transition is sluggish and can be seen as a transfer of 1/2 of the hydrogen atoms from strongly corrugated H-layers to interstitial sites of the Yb-lattice. We demonstrate by first-principles calculations that the transition is related to a change from a completely filled 
-electron configuration to a fractional -hole (0.25 h) occupation in the high- phase. The 
charge transfer closes the gap at the transition and leads to a metallic ground state with sizeable electron-phonon interaction involving out-of-plane vibrational modes of interstitial hydrogen.

Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) measurements on pre-hydrided cold worked, stress relieved and recrystallized Zry-4 cladding were performed in a temperature range between 50 and 600
C in order to elucidate the effect of final heat treatment at fabrication of Zircaloy-4 (Zry-4) cladding on the terminal solid solubility during the dissolution of zirconium hydrides at heating up (TSSD). Obtained DSC curves and Metallography indicate that the initial state of hydrides affects the dissolution behavior of hydride. The Arrhenius plots of the TSSD temperatures and hydrogen contents obtained from this study revealed that cold worked samples exhibited the largest TSSD and followed by stress relieved and recrystallized samples. The results of this study indicated that the difference in microstructure due to final heat treatment at fabrication of Zry-4 cladding affects the dissolution behavior of hydrides.

Hydrogen is the most abundant element in the solar system and is considered to be one of the promising candidates of the light elements in the Earth's core. However, the amount of hydrogen dissolved in the core and its process are still unknown because hydrogen cannot be detected by X ray and easily escapes from iron at ambient conditions. In this study, we have conducted high-pressure and high-temperature in-situ neutron diffraction experiments on the iron-hydrous mineral system using PLANET in J-PARC. We observed that the water, which was dissociated from a hydrous mineral, reacted with iron to form both iron oxide and iron hydride at about 4 GPa. Iron hydride remained stable after further increase in temperature. This formation occurred at 1000K, where no materials melted. This suggests that hydrogen dissolved into iron before any other light elements dissolved in the very early stage of the Earth's evolution.

The deuterization process of fcc Fe to form solid1solution fcc FeD was investigated by 
neutron diffraction measurements at high temperature and high pressure. In a completely deuterized specimen at 988 K and 6.3 GPa, deuterium atoms occupy the octahedral and tetrahedral interstitial sites with an occupancy of 0.532(9) and 0.056(5), respectively, giving a deuterium composition of 0.64(1). During deuterization, the metal-lattice expands approximately linearly with deuterium composition at a rate of 2.21 
per deuterium atom. The minor occupation of tetrahedral site is likely driven by the intersite movement of deuterium atoms along the 
111
direction in the fcc metal lattice. These results provide implications for the light elements in the Earth's core and the mechanism of hydrogen embrittlement of ferrous metals.

Yttrium hydride shows a structural change from a cubic dihydride to a hexagonal trihydride by hydrogenation. This is accompanied by the metal-insulator transition. The theoretical calculation of yttrium hydride speculates that the hybridization between 4d-Y and 1s-H leads to the opening of a large energy gap. They also predict that a transition from insulator to metal occurs when the volume is reduced to about 85% of the equilibrium volume in yttrium trihydride. Recently, we performed an infrared spectroscopy of yttrium trihydride to investigate pressure-induced metallization under high pressure. The insulator-metal transition occurred with an abrupt disappearance of the optical gap of 
1 eV at 23 GPa. There is a possibility of the electronic transition because no structural changes occur above 20 GPa. The electronic transition can be attributed to the delocalization of the 1s electrons bound to the H+ core ions or the rearrangement of hydrogen atoms.

These results show that both methods are effective means for estimating the hydrogen concentration in hydride materials.
