Abstract
The Zr1-xCox(x=0, 0.25, 0.53, 0.63, 1) thin films were deposited on quartz substrate using magnetron co-sputtering of Zirconium and Cobalt targets in confocal geometry. A constant pulsed direct current (PDC) on Zirconium and radio frequency (RF) of various powers on Cobalt target were applied to vary the concentration of Co in the Zr1-xCox film. The film composition was quantified using EDX measurements. The hydrogen storage capacity of these films was studied using an in-house developed hydrogen adsorption setup, in which the electrical resistivity of the film was monitored as a function of hydrogen partial pressure and temperature. The films' surface morphology and crystal structure before and after hydrogenation were characterized using atomic force microscopy and grazing incidence X-ray diffraction techniques using synchrotron radiation, respectively. An increase in the particle size after hydrogenation was observed for all the fi...
