Abstract

Angular Correlation of Annihilation Radiation (ACAR) is shown to be useful to examine the electronic structure of α-phase Pd1−y Ag y H x system. Hydrogen absorption by Pd1−y Ag y alloys results in the increase of both nearly free andd-localized electron numbers in compliance with the KKR-CPA calculation outcomes. The investigation of β-phase systems, PdH x hydrides as well as Pd1−y Ag y H x materials, failed because of a high concentration of lattice defects.
