Films of chalcogenide glassy semiconductors: new phenomena and new applications

In this short review, we consider recent new data on photoinduced phenomena in films of chalcogenide glassy semiconductors. New application of these films for fabrication of IR microlens arrays and photonic-band-gap crystals are also discussed.
