Popis: | The atomic structure of Si(S x Se 1− x ) 2 glasses has been investigated using Raman spectroscopy. Relatively sharp well-defined modes occur for all compositions ( x ) that permit a quantitative analysis of the Raman spectra. Polarized A 1 vibrational modes are observed in the bond stretching region that correspond to the symmetric vibrations of Si(S 4− N Se N ) ( N = 0, 1, 2, 3, 4) tetrahedral units. The intensities of these lines smoothly change as the relative amounts of S and Se are varied in the alloy glasses. The description of the atomic structure of the Si-alloy glasses that emerges from this work is the Random Chalcogen Site Model (RCSM). In this model, the glassy network consists of extended, edge-sharing tetrahedral chains in which the chalcogen sites are randomly occupied by S and Se. This description of the structure of the Si-based glasses accurately accounts for the intensities and positions of the observed Raman lines. A splitting is observed in the A 1 mode that corresponds to the vibrations of the N = 2 tetrahedral units. This is shown to be a consequence of the medium range order present in these glasses. The changes in the relative intensities of the two N = 2 A 1 modes as a function of composition suggest that a refinement of the RCSM is necessary. The present results provide strong evidence for the edge-sharing tetrahedral chain model of the structure of glassy SiS 2 and SiSe 2 and illustrate an example of isoelectronic substitution in glasses. |
