Mechanical stress upon hydrogen absorption in Nb-Fe Films — •Philipp Klose, Magnus Hamm, and Astrid Pundt — Universität Göttingen, Institut für Materialphysik, Friedrich-Hund-Platz 1, 37077 Göttingen

Hydrogen absorption in thin films adhered to rigid substrates results in compressive mechanical in-plane stresses.[1,2,3] These stresses can lead to changes in the material*s properties. While the in-plane film stress increases linearly on the hydrogen content for low hydrogen concentrations, deviations from the linearity appear at the yield stress [3,4]. The yield stress inversely depends on the film thickness.[5] For hydrogen loaded Niobium films, linearity is maintained to 1 H/Nb, for films below 7 nm and mechanical stress of up to -10 GPa is achieved.[5] The yield stress can also be affected by alloying. In this presenation we study the stress-development upon hydrogen loading in niobium-iron (about Nb90-Fe10) films. Films of different thickness were prepared by argon-cathode beam sputtering. Hydrogen loading was performed from the electrolyte using constant current conditions. For these films, stress linearity is found up to at least 40 nm film thickness.
