An α-AlH3 crystal decomposed into fine aluminum particles while retaining its initial external shape because of a thin rigid surface layer that covered the entire particle. EELS revealed that the thin surface layer was amorphous aluminum oxide, which stabilizes α-AlH3 particles at ambient temperature.}, pages = {123514--123514}, title = {Dehydriding process of alpha-AlH3 observed by transmission electron microscopy and electron energy-loss spectroscopy}, volume = {105}, year = {2009} }
