Abstract
X‐ray diffraction data obtained for carefully prepared and annealed samples of HfH2 and HfD2 show that as deuterium substitutes for hydrogen atoms the hafnium‐hydrogen bond distances decrease. The lattice as a whole contracts, and the density increases. Powder diffraction patterns and the structure data for the two compounds are presented.Keywords
