New laboratory data show that an efficient broad-band luminescence is emitted by hydrogenated amorphous carbon (HAC) solids with large hydrogen content. The peak wavelength and spectral extent of this emission closely coincides with the wavelength dependence of the very broad structure (VBS). It is suggested that a polymeric form of HAC may be present in diffuse clouds. Emission from this material should be observable in the spectrum of the diffuse galactic light.
