Abstract
Complementary XAFS measurements (LURE and NSLS) of Se1-xTex glasses have been carried out on both the Se and Te K-edges at low and room temperatures. Using a multi-shell best fit analysis procedure, we have reconstructed the Se and Te local environment : (i) first shell intrachain nearest neighbors (Se-Se1, Se-Tel, Te-Se1, and Te-Te1) ; (ii) second shell intrachain (Se-Se2 and Se-Te2) and interchain next nearest neighbors (Se ←→ Se3 single scattering in the chains Se-Se1-Se3 and Se-Tel-Se3). For the first and second coordination shells we suggest that the intrachain chemical order increases with Te content. On the other hand, we propose a model of random distribution of Se and Te atoms between the chains.
