Influence of Oxygen Contamination on the Pd-Si Solid-State Reactions Activated by Mechanical Alloying

The influence of oxygen contamination on the solid-state reaction (SSR), induced by ball milling, between palladium and silicon, has been investigated by X-ray diffraction and surface analysis. X-ray analysis reveals that approx 1 wt.% of O is able to inhibit the SSR between Pd and Si, while at high...

Summary:The influence of oxygen contamination on the solid-state reaction (SSR), induced by ball milling, between palladium and silicon, has been investigated by X-ray diffraction and surface analysis. X-ray analysis reveals that approx 1 wt.% of O is able to inhibit the SSR between Pd and Si, while at higher O content already formed phases are destabilized. The picture emerging from photoemission spectra in connection with X-ray analysis indicates that Si is bonded both to Pd and O at the surface of Pd particles with an increasing Si enrichment with increasing O contamination.
