Abstract
The paper presents the functional expression of V-A characteristics dependent on hydrostatic pressure up to 5 kbar for chalcogenide glass Ge15Te81S2As2. The measured V-A characteristics and those derived on the assumption of a linear decrease of the energy gap due to pressure have been compared. Temperature changes caused by current passing through the sample in thermal contact with the environment have been taken into consideration similarly as in the case of paper (2).
