A study of the nonlinear effects shown by thin slabs of GaSe metaled with Au is presented. A mathematical model is introduced to explain these thermally induced nonlinear effects. A rigorous solution is obtained for the steady state and a numerical procedure is introduced to obtain the time‐domain behavior. Measurements of transient phenomena and steady state are analyzed and are found to be in good agreement with the theoretical predictions. © 1996 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
