Diffusion-driven transient hydrogenation in metal superhydrides at extreme conditions by Yishan Zhou, Yunhua Fu, Meng Yang, Israel Osmond, Rajesh Jana, Takeshi Nakagawa, Owen Moulding, Jonathan Buhot, Sven Friedemann, Dominique Laniel, Thomas Meier

“…Strikingly, we found hydrogen to be in a highly diffusive state at room temperature, with diffusion coefficients in the order of 10−6 c m 2 s −1. We found that this diffusive state of hydrogen results in a dynamic de-hydrogenation of the sample over the course of several weeks, approaching a composition similar to its precursor materials. …”
