Abstract

Using the method of plasma oscillation dispersion, thin films of amorphous chalcogenide semiconductors have been investigated and the asymmetry in the number of electrons in the region of X-ray total external reflection and plasmon excitation has been calculated. Loop-shaped dispersion curves have been observed, and the mean energies of plasmons, together with plasmon-related internal stresses and film polarization, have been determined. It has been found that internal stresses and polarization in a molybdenum sulfide amorphous film are absent.
