Neutron Diffraction Studies of Metal Hydrides

  • Chapter

Part of the book series: NATO Advanced Study Institutes Series ((NSSB,volume 76))

Abstract

Neutron diffraction is the most powerful tool to determine the hydrogen location in metal hydrides, and many investigations have been carried out. This paper reviews recent progress in the structural studies of the Va transition metal — hydrogen system using neutron diffraction.
