Tuning the electronic conductance of REHx(RE=Nd,Ce,Pr)by structural deformation

Hydride ion(H-)conductors have drawn much attention due to their potential applications in hydride-ion-based devices.Rare earth metal hydrides(REHx)have fast H-conduction which,unfortunately,is accompanied by detrimental electron conduction preventing their application as ion conductors.Here,REHx(RE=Nd,Ce,and Pr)with varied grain sizes,rich grain boundaries,and defects have been prepared by ball milling and subsequent sintering.The electronic conductivity of the ball-milled REHx samples can be reduced by 2-4 orders of magnitude compared with the non-ball-milled samples.The relationship of electron conduction and miscrostructures in REHx is studied and discussed based on experimental data and previously-proposed classical and quantum theories.The H-conductivity of all REHx is about 10-4 to 10-3 S cm-1 at room temperature,showing promise for the development of H-conductors and their applications in clean energy storage and conversion.
