چکیده

We report measurements of the negative ion photoelectron spectra of the simple aluminum hydride anions: AlH2(-), AlH3(-), Al2H6(-), Al3H9(-), and Al4H12(-). From these spectra, we measured the vertical detachment energies of the anions, and we estimated the electron affinities of their neutral counterparts. Our results for AlH2(-), AlH3(-), and Al2H6(-) were also compared with previous predictions by theory.

Solid State NMR Studies of the Aluminum Hydride Phases

Several solid state NMR techniques including magic-angle-spinning (MAS) and multiple-quantum (MQ) MAS experiments have been used to characterize various AlH3 samples. MAS-NMR spectra for the H and Al nuclei have been obtained on a variety of AlH3 samples that include the βand γ-phases as well as the most stable α-phase. While the dominant components in these NMR spectra correspond to the alumin...
