Abstract

A method of calculating the adiabatic potentials for chalcogenide vitreous semiconductors has been proposed. The angle between the valence bonds of the chalcogen atom is considered a generalized atomic coordinate. Allowance for the change in thesp hybridization with variation in this angle is included in the calculation.
