Abstract
We have studied the effect of thermal evaporation rate on the basic physical properties of glassy (As2S3) x (As2Se3)1−x thin films on glass substrates and have determined the optimal range of deposition rates corresponding to the highest photosensitivity and long-term stability of the films. The results are interpreted in terms of the interaction between the deposit and the residual gas in the vacuum chamber.
