Bonding and Short Range Order in a-Gex Te1–x Alloys

  • Chapter
Disordered Semiconductors

Part of the book series: Institute for Amorphous Studies Series ((IASS))

Abstract

Central to an understanding of the properties of amorphous semiconductors is a knowledge of their bonding coordination. An additional factor in alloy systems (AXB1–x) is the degree to which randomly distributed bonds are replaced by heteropolar (A-B) bonds. Vibrational and electronic spectroscopy have proven powerful tools to elucidate these aspects of the structure.
