High-resolution synchrotron-radiation powder diffraction experiments were performed to observe structural changes induced by hydrogen loading in rapidly-quenched Ti–Zr–Ni alloy ribbons with dominant icosahedral character. Lattice expansion effects due to hydrogen storage in Ti–Zr–Ni quasicrystals as well as phonon and phason disorder coefficients are obtained from an analysis of diffraction linewidths.
