摘要
Films of the composition Ge40S60 have been studied in the temperature range of 313-423 K for electrical conductivity, and 293-373 K for thermal conductivity. The dc conductivity results indicate a single value activation energy of 0.863 eV for the conductivity in the applied temperature range. The thermal conductivity coefficient increases linearly with temperature at a thickness of d = 0.311 cm. It was found that the investigated samples show a memory effect. The threshold switching voltage was found to increase linearly with film thickness. Moreover, the threshold voltage decreases exponentially with temperature. The data are analysed using a thermal model for the switching process.
