Abstract
Interaction of pyrolytic graphite with atomic hydrogen is studied by means of thermal desorption spectrometry, atomic force and scanning tunneling microscopy. Both kinetic and microscopic measurements justify that hydrogen is absorbed beneath the surface and stored in the interlayer spaces of graphite as H2 molecules. The experimental results are treated within the framework of intercalation model.
