摘要
Al-Cr-O films are proposed as hydrogen permeation barriers. Layers of a few microns in thickness are able to suppress hydrogen permeability by a factor of 2000 to 3500 at temperatures of 700 degrees C, as has been found in our gas phase permeation experiments. We attribute this excellent efficiency to a dense layer morphology and the possible (pre)-formation of solid solutions in corundum-type structure. These films are deposited by pulsed arc evaporation in a batch-type production system at substrate temperatures of 550 degrees C. (c) 2008 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
