Total energy calculations based on density functional theory (DFT) have been performed for various uranium–hydrogen configurations relevant to the uranium hydriding reaction. Herein, we investigate the transformation of the supersaturated α-U lattice to the α-UH 3 lattice, where α-UH 3 is believed to be a precursor to the formation of β-UH 3 , the stable phase of UH 3 ...
Density functional theory was applied to the initial steps of uranium hydriding: surface phenomena, absorption, bulk transport and trapping. H adsorbs exothermically to the (001) surface, yet H absorption into the bulk is endothermic, with off-center octahedral absorption having the lowest absorption energy of 0.39eV, relative to molecular H 2 . H absorption in interstitial sites causes a...
