Quantum diffusion of hydrogen and deuterium on nickel

The quantum nature of hydrogen has long been observed to play an important role on its diffusion within metals. Motivated by recent experimental work, diffusion rates were calculated for both hydrogen and deuterium on the nickel (111) surface across a range of temperatures (75 K to 250 K), taking in...
