Description:
<jats:title>Abstract</jats:title><jats:p>Thin films of amorphous TlCl and CuCl have been prepared by low temperature condensation in high vacuum, and a transmission electron diffraction study of them has been undertaken. A radial distribution analysis from the diffuse halo patterns obtained has been made and the local atomic arrangements in amorphous TlCl and CuCl are discussed by comparison of the experimental <jats:italic>W(r)</jats:italic> (=ϱ(<jats:italic>r</jats:italic>)/ϱ<jats:sub>0</jats:sub>) with <jats:italic>W(r)</jats:italic>'s calculated from disordered crystalline models.</jats:p>
