Abstract
A number of chalcogenide glasses, thin films and structures made of these inorganic polymer materials are known as photosensitive media. It means that different processes may result from the interaction of light quantum with such semiconductor material (see Table 1). These effects are described in many books [1-3], excellent review articles are given by V. Lyubin in 1984, S. R. Elliott, in 1986 [5], K. Tanaka in 1990 [5], H. Fritzsche in 1994 [7] and others [8,9]. So, further in this paper we shall make references to these ones or to the papers containing our previous results. Also we shall consider effects caused by relatively small energy quantums hv ≥ E * g , where E * g is analogous to the band gap energy, but the illumination capacity may be varied in a great range from the usual for photoconductivity measurements (10-5-10-3 W ·cm-2) up to the heating or even melting the material (102-105 W-cm-2).
