X-ray Diffraction in Crystallography

X-ray diffraction spectra of palladium electrodes have been measured while being charged with hydrogen or deuterium in an electrolysis cell. Changes in the lattice parameter have been recorded as a function of electrolysis time, showing a transition from the low hydrogen α phase to the ß phase, PdH. No further structural transition beyond this phase has been observed.
