Photodecomposition of Amorphous As2Se3 and As2S3

Electromagnetic radiation approximately equal to band-gap energy has been established as responsible for the dissociation of amorphous As2Se3 and As2S3. The dissociation is accompanied by an optical densification observable as a ``photographic'' effect in thin films of these materials. The...

Zusammenfassung:Electromagnetic radiation approximately equal to band-gap energy has been established as responsible for the dissociation of amorphous As2Se3 and As2S3. The dissociation is accompanied by an optical densification observable as a ``photographic'' effect in thin films of these materials. The dissociation can be expressed by the following equations: As2Se3→ lim hvxAs+As2−xSe3, 0
