Abstract
- Hydrogen is a promising clean energy source to address the energy issue as well as the environmental and health risks of current energy sources. Metal hydrides have demonstrated significant potential for storing hydrogen. The perovskite hydrides AMgH 3 (A = Be, Ca) have demonstrated potential for hydrogen storage applications due to their impressive gravimetric hydrogen density of 8.32 and 4.49 wt% for BeMgH 3 and CaMgH 3 , respectively. The calculated results indicate that AMgH 3 (A = Be, Ca) perovskite hydrides exhibit metallic character. The AMgH 3 (A = Be, Ca) compounds mostly absorb quanta of energy in the IR range, but they also exhibit high absorption in the UV region. The formation enthalpies of these hydrides have been found to be negative, indicating that they are thermodynamically stable. Furthermore, it has been established that these perovskite hydrides are mechanically stable as they fulfil Born stability criteria. [Display omitted] • Hydrogen storage properties of AMgH 3 (A = Be, Ca) are investigated using DFT approach. • AMgH 3 (A = Be, Ca) show metallic character as their energy bandgap value is 0 eV. • They show remarkable gravimetric H-densities of 8.32 and 4.49 wt%. • AMgH 3 (A = Be, Ca) perovskite hydrides exhibit thermodynamic and mechanical stability.
