The transient dc conductivity of liquid selenium after illumination with a pulsed laser has been investigated as a function of temperature over the range and as a function of the laser intensity over the range 2-20 mJ/pulse. For the measurements, a new type of cell, made of quartz, of the authors' design was developed. We found that the conductivity increased up to when the pulsed laser illuminated liquid selenium at with the intensity of 20 mJ/pulse, which suggests that a photoinduced semiconductor-metal transition occurs. We also observed three types of relaxation, depending on the laser intensity and the temperature. The existence of these relaxations may suggest that there are several types of photoinduced structure in liquid selenium. We discuss the observed photoinduced effects in terms of the photoinduced structural changes.
