We review the use of neutron scattering in the structure determination of quasicrystals. The contrast between X-ray and neutron cross-section gives a useful complementary information. When feasible, contrast variation techniques allow to disentangle the different atomic contribution. Diffuse scattering studies are also simplified, thanks to the possibility of an energy analysis. We discuss results obtained in the case of the i-AlPdMn phase.
