Abstract

The structure of amorphous AlPO 4 was calculated using the method of molecular dynamics. Calculated radial distribution functions are in good agreement with those measured by Wignall et al. using X-ray diffraction. The structure, although similar to that of SiO 2 in many features, lacks full connectivity and does not appear as random. This may help explain the resistance of AlPO 4 to glass formation.
