Topology of covalent non-crystalline solids II: Medium-range order in chalcogenide alloys and ASi(Ge)

Abstract Characteristic order over distances of 15–30 A is indicated by various experiments on covalent non-crystalline solids. The data are reviewed and detailed structural models are developed containing 30–1000 atoms.
