Abstract. Voltage-current characteristics forwardly biased heterojunctions p-GaSe-n-InSe made by the method of optical contact are analyzed. Asit was ascertained, the forward current is determined by tunnel-recombination processes at low voltages and overbarrier emission. The experimental characteristics are defined by the known theoretical expressions for anisotipical heterojunctions with the energy diagram by Andersen.

Keywords: heterijunction, voltage-current characteristic, current transport, gallium and indium monoselenides.
