Abstract
The effect of hydrogen on the electronic properties is studied for the superconducting metallic glass Zr2Pd. Measurements of the mass density, electrical resistivity, thermoelectric power, the superconducting transition temperatureT c and the upper critical field of Zr2Pd with different hydrogen to metal ratios are given. Although the electronic density of states decreases steadily with increasing hydrogen content,T c is constant forH/M values higher than 0.5. All results can be interpreted with two different binding states of the hydrogen for low and high hydrogen concentrations.
