Abstract
Some preliminary results are presented concerning an effect of laser light (λ=4880 Å) on the growth of an evaporated ZnS film. We observe an increase in thickness in the region of the film illuminated by laser light. The spatial resolution is high and the observed phenomenon is not thermal in origin. A simple and unique method for investigating the dynamics of the effect during its evolution is described.Keywords
