Materials Science Aims and scope

Abstract

We discovered the effect of decrease in the conductivity of nanoporous carbon in the process of sorption of hydrogen. For the description of this effect of hydrogen, we propose a mechanism according to which the concentration of free charge carriers decreases as a result of entrapping of holes by broken carbon bonds in the course of adsorption of the atoms of hydrogen.
