Amorphous carbon

Robertson, J.·1986·Advances in Physics

Abstract

The properties of various types of amorphous carbon and hydrogenated amorphous carbon are reviewed with particular emphasis on the effect of atomic structure on the electronic structure. It is shown how the proportion of sp3 and sp2 sites not only defines the short-range order but also a substantial medium-range order. Medium-range order is particularly important in amorphous carbon because it is the source of its optical gap, whereas short-range order is usually sufficient to guarantee a gap in other amorphous semiconductors. The review discusses the following properties: short-range order and the radial distribution function, the infrared and Raman spectra, mechanical strength, the electronic structure, photoemission spectra, optical properties, electron energy-loss spectra, core-level excitation spectra, electrical conductivity, electronic defects and the electronic doping of hydrogenated amorphous carbon.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
