Abstract
We used Bethe lattice to represent the ideal network of amorphous GeS, GeSe and GeTe with coordination 4 : 2 and calculated corresponding densities of electronic states. Good results were obtained for Harrison Hamiltonian. Further study of a-GeS showed that localized states arise from various bonding defects. On the other hand, the actual arrangement of the chemically ordered lattice has only little effect on the density of valence states.
