Anomalous γ peak evolution from SrCe solid state electrolyte charged in D 2 gas

A proton conductor, the solid state electrolyte, made from an oxide of strontium, cerium, niobium and yttrium can be charged in a hot D 2 gas atmosphere. Anomalous radioisotopes were detected in all samples charged with an alternating current with voltages ranging from 5 to 45 V, at temperatures ran...

Summary:A proton conductor, the solid state electrolyte, made from an oxide of strontium, cerium, niobium and yttrium can be charged in a hot D 2 gas atmosphere. Anomalous radioisotopes were detected in all samples charged with an alternating current with voltages ranging from 5 to 45 V, at temperatures ranging from 400 to 700 °C. No radioisotopes were detected from the sample treated in a H 2 gas atmosphere. The radioisotopes may be induced from a catalytic reaction between the metal and oxide interface to deuterium atoms.
