Yb4 Mg4 Ni4 H16
semiconductor· Yb4 Mg4 Ni4 H16
Yb₄Mg₄Ni₄H₁₆ is an experimental intermetallic hydride compound combining rare-earth (ytterbium), lightweight (magnesium), and transition metal (nickel) elements with hydrogen. This research-phase material belongs to the family of metal hydrides and intermetallic compounds being investigated for hydrogen storage, energy conversion, and solid-state ionic conductor applications. Its notable distinction lies in combining the hydrogen-absorption capacity of metal hydrides with the structural properties of ordered intermetallics, making it potentially relevant for next-generation hydrogen economy technologies where conventional storage or catalytic systems are limited.
