In Situ Neutron Diffraction Study of the Deuteration of Isotopic Mg11B2

Isotopic Mg11B2 has been deuterated at 400 °C and 800 bar, with the production of β-Mg(11BD4)2 observed by in situ neutron diffraction. A natural MgB2 sample has been deuterated under similar conditions and studied ex situ by high resolution X-ray synchrotron diffraction. In both cases, quantitative...
