Abstract

Spectroscopic evidence for four-fold and possibly, two-fold coordinated defects in amorphous As is presented. Structure in Raman scattering and infrared absorption measurements is interpreted using force-constant models and the cluster-Bethe-lattice method. The positions and intensities of certain peaks suggest that these defects may be the analogues of valence alternation pairs in amorphous chalcogenide glasses.
