摘要: Abstract Electrical properties of amorphous selenium films (~2.1 μm thick) were investigated at different temperatures between 225 K and room temperature. The samples prepared using thermal evaporation method. capacitance conductance measured analyzed to study their changes with temperature voltage. An anomalous peak is found in the conductance- capacitance-temperature curves ~245 K. phenomenon can be linked distribution defect states near mid-gap change ‘effective transport energy’ which takes place.
