Abstract
Many activated phenomena, including solid state diffusion in crystals and polymers, dielectric relaxation, conduction and thermally stimulated processes in polymers, and electronic conduction in amorphous semiconductors obey the compensation law or Meyer-Neldel rule. In the present paper, we discuss the results of investigation into the compensation effect observed under isothermal crystallization in glassy Se70Te30−xSbx alloys. It is found that the relation between the pre-exponential factor Ko and activation energy of crystallization Ec follows the Meyer-Neldel rule for the alloys studied.
