Molecular models of giant photocontractive evaporated chalcogenide films
Description
Spiral ribbon giant molecules morphologically analogous to crystalline whiskers are sufficient to explain the giant photocontraction observed in obliquely evaporated Ge-As-S-Se (but not Te) films. The relation between these anomalies and the bulk melt-quenched glass-forming tendency is explained in topological terms
