Abstract
Abstract A new analysis of electronic transport in chalcogenide glasses, based on bipolaron hopping in the extended pair approximation, is presented. It is assumed that the relaxation time of the carrier when hopping has a Meyer-Neldel type of temperature dependence instead of a simple activated form. In this way, the experimental data for both dc conductivity and ac conductivity can be fitted over a wide range of temperatures, and for a number of glasses using the same set of parameters.
