Abstract
Hydrogenated amorphous carbon structures, a-C:H, with densities of 1.8 and 2.0 g/cm3, have been generated by semiempirical density-functions (DF) molecular-dynamics (MD) rapid cooling of a liquid phase of 128 carbon and 64 hydrogen atoms within periodically arranged cubic supercells. The electronic bonding properties of the model structures are analyzed within a local-orbital description. The structural properties are compared to relevant statistical and diffraction data obtained by neutron scattering and NMR in order to achieve a fundamental understanding of structure-related properties on the molecular level of chemical bonding.
