Abstract
The transient response to step voltage excitation was investigated for bulk As2S3 and As2Se3 material and in evaporated As2Se3 films. Au and Al were used as electrodes. While in general the response proved to be relaxational, for all As2S3 samples and for the Au/As2Se3/Al substrate cell some additional structure was observed which points to the transit of a finite amount of charge through the sample.
