Coordination Defects Formation Model for Reversible Photostructural Transformations in Amorphous As2S(Se)3

  • Chapter
Physics and Applications of Non-Crystalline Semiconductors in Optoelectronics

Part of the book series: NATO ASI Series ((ASHT,volume 36))

Abstract

Photoinduced destruction-polymerization transformations in the amorphous a-As2S(Se)3 associated with coordination defects formation processes have been studied by differential IR Fourier spectroscopy method in the 400-100 cm-1 region. All topological variants of these processes statistically possible in the investigated samples have been taken into account for physical consideration of the real microstructural transformations. The model for the both irreversible and reversible photoinduced effects has been developed at the basis of coordination defects concept.
