Mg2Fe hydride belongs to the most promising candidates for application as light weight storage material in a future hydrogen economy. Recently, it has been shown that due to chemochromism, Mg2Fe is also a low-cost and rare-earth-free candidate for switchable mirrors upon hydrogen loading. However, the interaction between defects and hydrogen on the atomic scale remains not completely understood, despite the fact that the behaviour of hydrogen in metals is strongly affected by the presence of defects. Due to the positive binding energy between hydrogen and vacancy, the hydrogen atoms get trapped at existing defects which thus play an important role for the hydride formation.

We present a comparative and systematic study on the defects in Mg2Fe and their interaction with hydrogen by means of positron annihilation spectroscopy (PAS). We present first results of the temperature dependence of the open volume defects during annealing of Mg2FeH6 thin films, which was performed by an unique high vacuum system for defect manipulation and analysis (AIDA) at the positron beamline at the Helmholtz-Zentrum Dresden-Rossendorf.
