37. 2 molecules are not incorporated into the films during the deposition, the actual concentration of hydrogen in our cells would change. The low- and high-density cell would contain 24 at. % and 14 at. % of hydrogen, respectively. Expected changes in density are small due to the small hydrogen mass.
