We have investigated the materials formed by Ag photodiffusion in Se-rich Ge-Se thin glass films. The amount of Ag that can be incorporated by this method saturates at a level dependent on the quantity of Se in the starting glass. The photodiffused Ag reacts with the Se to form distinct Ag Se and Ge
Ge y Se (1Γy) glasses are semiconductors but when Ag is added above certain threshold concentration, Ag x [Ge y Se (1Γy) ] (100Γx) glasses behave as fast ionic conductors [Uren Λa et al., Solid State Ionics 176 (2005) 505]. This peculiar behavior may be attributed to the intrinsically inhomogeneous
