Abstract

The hydrogenation of Li₃N at low chemical potential has been studied in situ by time-of-flight powder neutron diffraction and the formation of a non-stoichiometric Li_4-2xNH phase and Li₄NH observed. The results are interpreted in terms of a model for the reaction pathway involving the production of Li₄NH and Li₂NH, which subsequently react together to form Li_4-2xNH. Possible mechanisms for the production of Li₄NH from the hydrogenation of Li₃N are discussed.
