Popis: | The optical characteristics of thin (∼2-μm-thick) films of As2S3 chalcogenide glass prepared by thermal deposition in vacuum have been determined from the results of multiangle ellipsometric measurements using He-Ne laser radiation (λ = 0.6328 μm), with allowance for weak absorption in this spectral range. Relaxation-induced changes in the optical properties of both freshly prepared (unannealed) and annealed As2S3 films are determined. The possibility of using ellipsometry for the qualitative estimation of the degree of inhomogeneity of the film and its variation in the course of structural transformations during relaxation or under the action of other factors is considered. |
