Abstract
One of the singular features of amorphous selenium films is their position‐dependent crystallization rates. A new model is proposed which attributes the 100‐fold variation in rate to stress fields surrounding some of the polycrystalline cylindrites. The mechanism by which these fields can enhance the crystallization rate is discussed and some critical tests are suggested.This publication has 22 references indexed in Scilit:
