Abstract
The illumination of the ferroelectric SbSI in the spectral region where a maximum of photoconductivity of this crystal took place (λ ≃ 6200 Å) decreased the ferroelectric polarization. This resulted in the appearance of a region of saturation of the V‐I characteristic and in the decrease of the pyrocurrent, being measured in the phase transition. The influence of illumination on the ferroelectric polarization in SbSI was observed in a relatively wide temperature interval below the Curie temperature.Keywords
