Abstract
Raman and far-infrared (FIR) measurements have been made on a series of amorphous GexSe1-x alloys with 0.20-1 is consistent with that predicted by a network of fourfold-(twofold-) coordinated Ge(Se) atoms, with heteropolar bonds favoured over homopolar bonds. Some evidence for intermediate-range order has also been found; in particular it would appear that in a-GeSe (x=1/2) the density of GeSe4 tetrahedra exceeds that predicted by a random-network model.
