Infrared, Raman and 29 Si MAS-NMR spectroscopic methods are applied to analyse the relationship between the chemical compositions of the initial synthesis gels, the predominant type of atomic arrangement in the amorphous precursors obtained from the dried gels and the favoured crystalline titanosili

✦ Synopsis
The existence of small bond angles (like those of triangles and squares) in amorphous silicon networks were studied by the tight-binding molecular dynamics method, by analyzing the statistical data of Si -Si-Si fragments inside large molecules, and also by the Reverse Monte-Carlo simulation method. The influence of small bond angles on the electronic density of states was revealed.
