ABSTRACTPhoto-induced growth of ZnS on CdS has been studied using amorphous (thin film) and single-crystal substrates. The effect has been found to occur for light of wavelength shorter than the CdS absorption edge; a maximum light-induced thickness enhancement of 700 Å has been obtained for the ZnS film, with a growth rate of 2000 Å/min. The lightinduced growth, with its observed “memory” of several minutes is consistent with photo-desorption of an adlayer.
