The specific conductivity and optical absorption in IR range
of thin CuI films prepared by various methods have been studied.
It has been shown that the films can be used as transparent conductive
electrodes in a wide spectral region. The optical absorption of the
CuI films with hole conductivity has been found to be defined
by two mechanisms: the free hole scattering (the Drude-Lorenz mechanism)
and optical transitions between different subbands of the valence
band.
