The diffusion of H2 in hexagonal ice at low temperatures

The diffusion of hydrogen molecules in hexagonal D2O ice (Ih) in the temperature range of 25–60 K was investigated by quasielastic neutron scattering. The observed spectra consist of a narrow elastic peak and a broad quasielastic component. The single-particle diffusion coefficient for H2 in D2O ice...

Zusammenfassung:The diffusion of hydrogen molecules in hexagonal D2O ice (Ih) in the temperature range of 25–60 K was investigated by quasielastic neutron scattering. The observed spectra consist of a narrow elastic peak and a broad quasielastic component. The single-particle diffusion coefficient for H2 in D2O ice was obtained using a simple model of diffusion and is remarkably high—comparable to the coefficient of H2 in a liquid.
