Radiation-induced optical darkening and oxidation effects in As₂S₃ glass
The long-wave shift of fundamental optical absorption edge with decreasing the sample’s transparency in the saturation region in the As₂S₃ bulk glass (2 mm thick) due to radiation treatment by ⁶⁰Co y-quanta with the average energy E = 1.25 MeV and accumulated dose Ф = 2.41 MGy is reported. The red s...

The investigated samples used for measurements were prepared within joint research projects (#0106U007386 and #0109U007446c) between DSPU (Drohobych, Ukraine) and SRC “Carat” (Lviv, Ukraine) supported by the MES of Ukraine (#0106U007385 and #0109U007445). Optical spectroscopy experiments were performed within the of 2 to 3 months after y-irradiation, the optical transmission spectrum was measured again for the gAs₂S₃ sample in the y-irradiated state. These measurements were performed to examine only the wellknown static radiation-induced optical effects, which are stable in the long period of time starting from 2 months after y-irradiation, as revealed for various systems of chalcogenide vitreous semiconductors [8-11, 13, 20-24]. en Інститут фізики напівпровідників імені В.Є.
