Theoretical study of an amorphous chalcogenide surface
نویسندگان
چکیده
The structure of amorphous surfaces is a challenging frontier yet to be thoroughly explored. Standard surface characterization techniques like STM are difficult to apply to these surfaces. We have studied GeSe2 glass surfaces using first principle methods in a slab geometry. The glass surfaces are obtained by quenching a slab of an equilibrated liquid. We have found that these surfaces are well characterized by the distribution of rings. A detailed study of ring formation and associated properties is presented. We also briefly describe the electronic/optical and vibrational structure of these surfaces. 2008 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved. PACS: 61.43.Fs; 68.03.Hj

Fabrication and Structural Characterization of Se-Ge Chalcogenide Glasses by Means of Melt Quenching Technique
The structural and optical characterization of Se-Ge alloys during melt quenching technique was the goal of this study. In this regards, five different samples of Se100-xGex (x= 10, 20, 30, 40, 50) were prepared by conventional melt quenching in quartz ampoule. The produced samples were characterized using X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), differential scanning calori...

متن کاملSome Peculiarities of Photo-structural Transformations in Amorphous Chalcogenide Glassy Semiconductor Films
587 Abstract— The absence of deep traps for electrons in the spectrum of As 40 Se 30 S 30 localized states films obtained by ion sputtering was determined. Bipolar drift of charge carriers was found in amorphous As 40 Se 30 S 30 films of chalcogenide glassy semiconductors, obtained by ion-plasma sputtering of high-frequency, unlike the films of these materials obtained by thermal evaporation.
