In some cases, especially in optical instruments, 2 S amorphous semiconductors have advantages compared with crystals. Theore- tical studies of amorphous semiconductors should help in these practical applications. The present monograph is the first attempt to present systematically the quantum electron theory of amorphous conductors. The most interesting-in the author's view-theoretical papers on this subject, published in journals are reviewed and critically compared.
