Title: Quasielastic neutron scattering with in situ humidity control: Water dynamics in uranyl fluoride

Journal Article · · Journal of Applied Physics
DOI:https://doi.org/10.1063/1.4943164· OSTI ID:1241410

The authors confirm that water vapor pressure is the driving thermodynamic force for the conversion of the anhydrous structure to [(UO2F2)(H2O)]7 ∙ (H2O)4, and they demonstrate the feasibility of extending this approach to aqueous forms of UO2F2+ xH2O. This method has general applicability to systems in which water content itself is a driving variable for structural or dynamical phase transitions.
