Abstract

The effect of illumination on the transmittance and the structure of Bil3 films was investigated. Photoexcitation was found to induce structural variation and decomposition of the films into metallic bismuth and free iodine. Moreover, measurements of the electrical conductivity during heating show thermal decomposition of the films and it was found that the temperature of decomposition depends on the thickness of the film.
