Aa. Babaev et Em. Zobov, PHOTOSTRUCTURAL TRANSFORMATIONS AND PHOTOLUMINESCENCE FATIGUE EFFECT IN DEFORMED-CRYSTALS AND POWDERS OF AS2S3, GESE2, AND AS2SE3, Inorganic materials, 32(9), 1996, pp. 940-942
Photoinduced absorption and bleaching accompanied by a shift in the tr
ansmission edge and photoluminescence (PL) fatigue effect were found i
n deformed powders and crystals of As2S3, GeSe2, and As2Se3 at 77 K. I
n the excitation spectra of mechanically treated crystals, the PL peak
shifts toward higher energies, the slope of the low-energy side of th
e band decreases, and the PL intensity rises. The results are discusse
d in terms of two stable structural states of molecular groups.
