Abstract
In single crystals of CdS with indium electrodes an asymmetry in the volt-ampere characteristic has been discovered which develops after the passage of large currents at elevated temperatures. A change in the resistivity of the specimen in a direction from the cathode to the anode is simultaneously observed, associated with the high-temperature drift of charged vacancies.
