The reorientational dynamics of tetrahydroborate (BH4-) anions in a variety of environments were probed as a function of temperature via fixed-window scans (FWSs) at zero energy transfer using a neutron backscattering spectrometer. The temperature dependence of the FWS was shown to be a sensitive indicator of the relative reorientational mobilities of BH4- anions in the various alkali-metal borohydride compounds MBH4 (M = Li, Na, K, Rb, Cs), LiBH4 nanoconfined in carbon aerogel, and LiBH4-LiI solid solution.
