Abstract
Concluding this review, we can say that the investigation of the interaction of polarized light with chalcogenide glasses is still in its initial stage. One is tempted to compare the development of research of scalar and vectorial photo-induced phenomena in ChGS. The photoinduced optical effects (photodarkening and photorefraction) were observed and studied first. Later, it was shown that these effects are accompanied by changes in photoconductivity, microhardness, glass softening temperature, velocity of surface acoustic waves, density, rate of dissolution in some solvents, photodoping by metals, etc.
