Bulk analysis and depth profiling methods for hydrogen in inorganic materials and coatings are reviewed. Bulk analysis of hydrogen is based on fusion of macroscopic samples in an inert gas and the detection of the thereby released gaseous H2: inert gas fusion method (IGF) and thermal desorption spectroscopy (TDS). Depth profiling methods involve glow discharge optical emission spectroscopy and mass spectrometry (GDOES and GDMS), laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS), secondary ion mass spectrometry (SIMS), nuclear reaction analysis (NRA), and elastic recoil detection analysis (ERDA). The principles of all these methods are explained in terms of the methodology, calibration procedures, analytical performance, and major application areas. The synergies and the complementarity of various methods of hydrogen analysis are described. The existing literature about these methods is critically evaluated, and major papers concerning each method are listed.
