Abstract

Recently, we have constructed structural models for flatly deposited amorphous Se (a-Se) and using these configurations we have developed atomic scale model of photoinduced volume changes in this type of films. In this paper the same work on obliquely deposited thin film is presented. Universal description for the kinetics of photoinduced volume change in chalcogenide glasses is proposed based on our results. Our model containing reversible (transient) and irreversible (metastable) parts for kinetics fits well the experimental results of both obliquely and flatly deposited a-AsSe thin films. Finally, we make a brief comment on stretched exponential function which could also provide a quite good fit to experimental data.
