Abstract
Hydrogenated chalcogenide glasses spanning the binary systems As-S and As-Se have been prepared by plasma decomposition of the constituent hydrides. The infrared spectra show that H is bonded predominantly to elements present in excess of stoichiometry. The reversible photo-induced shift of the absorption edge and the number and FSR spectra of photo-induced spins are the same as in glasses not containing hydrogen.
