54. + is not expected as a free species in the gas phase or at the surface of the solid at any time. The term recombination used here originates from the artificial splitting of the overall reaction into steps of known energy. The experimental observation of heterolytic splitting of diborane on a LiH surface is per se not sufficient to conclude on the charge transfer mechanism at hand.
