Abstract

Electric current pulses passing through conducting SnO2:In2O3 (ITO) layers (used as electrodes in optoelectronic devices) on plane-parallel glass substrates produce depolarization of the transmitted light. This effect, which is probably related to changes in the structure of ITO layers as a result of Joule heating, can lead to distortions of the information field in the course of optical data transmission.
