Abstract
AbstractThe shift of the K‐absorption edge (ΔEk) was measured in ternary alloys of Ga30Se70‐xInx (x = 0, 5, 10, 15, 20) with respect to the binary Ga30Se70 alloy. It was observed that the K‐edge of selenium shifted progressively towards the lower energy side as the indium concentration increased from 0 to 10 at.%. However, at higher concentrations, the relative shift started to decrease. These results are in accordance with Pauling's concept of electronegativity and indicate that the nature of the bond is iono‐covalent in these glasses, as found in many crystalline solids. The composition dependence of the edge shift is also discussed in terms of the structure of the SeGa system.
