▎ 摘  要

NOVELTY - Hydrogen storage structure comprises: many graphene sheets arranged to form a stack (9); and many spacers arranged between adjacent graphene sheets in the stack. USE - The hydrogen storage structure is useful for storing hydrogen (claimed) for use as a fuel and in alternative fuel vehicles. ADVANTAGE - The hydrogen storage structure utilizes the graphene sheets which are thermodynamically stable, and have a high crystal quality and macroscopic continuity, pronounced electric field effect, and are doped with lithium, which help in stabilizing the hydrogen molecules, and can store 7.7 wt.% of hydrogen. DETAILED DESCRIPTION - INDEPENDENT CLAIMS are also included for: (1) a hydrogen storage structure, comprising: a first graphene sheet (2); a second graphene sheet (4) adjacent to the first graphene sheet and arranged to form a stack; and many spacers arranged between the first graphene sheet and the second graphene sheet in the stack; and (2) storing hydrogen, comprising arranging many graphene sheets to form a stack and spacing adjacent graphene sheets in the stack apart with many spacers, where the spacers are arranged between the adjacent graphene sheets. DESCRIPTION OF DRAWING(S) - The figure shows an elevation view showing hydrogen storage structure having graphene spheres positioned between graphene sheets. First graphene sheet (2) Second graphene sheet (4) Graphene spheres (6, 8) Stack (9)
