Abstract

The structure and dynamics of a-TiCu(D,H)1.7 and a-TiCu(D,H)1.4 have been examined by Fourier transform quadrupole echo DMR line shape and relaxation time measurements at 30.7 MHz. The quadrupole-broadened a-TiCu(D,H)x line widths narrowed appreciably above 300 K because of increased D mobility. Low temperature DMR spectra show that static quadrupolar broadening is larger for amorphous samples than for crystalline samples. Deuteron spin lattice relaxation is attributed to conduction electrons below 200 K and to quadrupolar interactions at higher temperatures where deuteron hopping becomes significant. The spin lattice relaxation times indicate that the deuteron mobility is larger by an order of magnitude in the amorphous material than in the crystalline counterparts. Results are compared with those from proton magnetic resonance in corresponding hydrides.
