DESCRIPTION:Prof. Torben R. Jensen\nDepartment of Chemistry\nAarhus Univer
 sity\, Denmark    \nChE-602 - Recent Events in Energy seminar series\n\n
 Hydrogen is recognized as a potential and extremely interesting energy car
 rier\, which can facilitate efficient utilization of unevenly distributed 
 renewable energy. Furthermore\, hydrogen has an extremely interesting chem
 istry and form compounds with most elements in the periodic table and with
  a variety of different types of bonds. Metal hydrides has recently become
  very interesting as new classes of energy materials for batteries and hyd
 rogen storage. Here we report an overview of our recent results within new
  hydrogen containing materials:\n\n(i) synthesis of novel metal borohydrid
 es and studies of their properties for hydrogen storage or as ion conducto
 rs\,\n(ii) tailoring materials properties by anion substitution or neutral
  molecule derivatives\, and\n(iii) in situ powder X-ray diffraction studie
 s.\n\nWe conclude that the chemistry of hydrides is very diverse\, towards
  multi-functional materials.
