[摘要]:We have conducted x-ray absorption near-edge structure (XANES) experiments on germanium selenide glasses, in search of a structural signature of the intermediate phase (IP). Quantitative analyses of the XANES spectra reveal compositional plateaus that coincide with the IP reversibility window, providing structural evidence for the IP. Molecular dynamic simulations have been performed to understand the atomistic origin of the electronic structure of the glasses. The IP originates from a competition between amorphous GeSe2 and amorphous Se clusters and produces measurable signatures. Our study provides atomistic insight into the structural origin of the IP in Ge-Se glasses. (C) 2010 American Institute of Physics. [doi: 10.1063/1.3495775] |
