Abstract
Transmission and reflection spectra of samples of chalcogenide glasses in the As-S-Se and As-Se-Te systems have been measured in the wavelength range of 0.4–2.5 μm. Spectral dependences of the single-photon absorption coefficient and refractive index are obtained, the parameters characterizing the fundamental absorption edge are determined, and the Kerr constant in the low-frequency limit is calculated. Based on the obtained results and the data in the literature, dispersion curves are plotted for the Kerr constants of As2S3 and As2Se3 glasses near the absorption edge.
