Microparacrystalline Model for Medium-Range Order in Non-Crystalline Chalcogenides

Abstract

The medium range order in disordered chalcogenides has been explained by the existence of reminiscent crystal-like configurations with distorted arrangement of the atoms. Using the paracrystalline theory, two parameters have been defined for the characterization of the MRO in glass: paracrystallite thickness and paracrystallite distortion.
