A study of the dissociation dynamics of D₂O on zirconium surfaces using resonance enhanced multiphoton ionization spectroscopy
Atomic hydrogen adsorbates on Zr surfaces have much higher probability for dissolution into the bulk than recombinative desorption even when the surface is heated at rates as high as 10¹⁰ K/s. On the other hand, water dissociation on hot Zr surfaces (which takes place at temperatures as low as 80 K)...
