Abstract
Singularities of the charge transfer during exposure of a dielectric with an open surface to an electron beam in the presence of light are investigated. Within the framework of a quasi-free carrier models a general expression is obtained that describes the transition potential of the open surface under a jumplike change in exposure conditions. Experiments are conducted displaying the applicability of the quasi-free carrier model to charge transport under conditions of multiple trapping and preferred photoliberation of carriers.
