Abstract
The kinetics of the amorphous-to-crystalline transition in Se70Te30 gl ass has been studied using electrical conductivity as a sensitive para meter characterizing the transformation process. The experimental data were fitted to the well-known Avrami theory of transformation kinetic s. A mean value for the growth parameter n = 1.51 +/- 0.03 and effecti ve activation energy of crystal growth E = 104.2 KJ mol-1 have been ob tained in the temperature range 360-375 K for the present system.
