The hydrogen storage system [MgH2–2LiBH4] shows attractive properties such as favorable thermodynamics, high hydrogen capacity and reversibility. However, there exists an incubation period that amounts up to 10 hours in the dehydrogenation steps, which restricts this system as a practical material. In this study, the…

We have prepared BiFe0.95Ni0.05O3 by the standard solid-state reaction and rapid sintering. The structural analysis by x-ray diffraction for BiFe0.95Ni0.05O3 shows rhombohedral perovskite structure (R3c), and lattice constants a and c of BiFe0.95Ni0.05O3 are slightly increased as compared to those of BiFeO3. The Raman…
