Abstract

Measurements of absorption coefficient in the region of the absorption edge, of spectral distribution of photoconductivity and dependence of electrical conductivity upon temperature on Sb2Se3 single crystals are given. The absorption of light was proved to correspond to indirect forbidden transitions. The value of optical gapE optg =(1·11±0·02) eV forEa andE ∥ c was determined. From photoconductivity and conductivity measurements the values of the gaps areE optg =1·11 eV andE elg =1·04 eV. The anisotropy of the electrical conductivity parallel and perpendicular to the cleavage plane is 2·2.
