Abstract

The first sharp diffraction peak from various forms of aperiodic silica was studied. Materials examined include vitreous silica, electron-metamict quartz, neutron-metamict quartz, and Si+ ion-implanted quartz. The peak is attributed to the dominant structural rings existing in the materials, or modification thereof. The anomalous behavior of this peak is also discussed.
