Glow Rate Technique for Spectroscopy of Complex Thermostimulated Relaxation Processes
1996
The glow rate technique (GRT) developed for the analysis of complex trap spectra, is the extension of the known heating rate method to the full glow curve. It is shown that using two glow curves measured at different heating rate constants, a special mean activation energy of simultaneously emptied traps can be obtained as a function of temperature or emitted light sum to a good approximation. Expressions have been derived for the calculation of the mean activation energy function from data measured using a linear, logarithmic or a hyperbolic heating mode. Theoretical expressions for the mean activation energy function have been obtained and discussed for arbitrary trap distribution functio…
Self-trapped holes and recombination luminescence in LiBaF3 crystals
2001
Abstract We investigated electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) angular dependencies, recombination afterglow and thermostimulated luminescence of undoped LiBaF3 crystals, X-irradiated at low temperatures. EPR parameters of the F2− molecule oriented along the [1 1 0] direction have been obtained. Based on the value of the g-shift Δg=g⊥−gII=0.02, characteristic for the VK-centres in similar perovskites, we propose that we indeed observed the VK-centres, not the H-centres. X-irradiation below 170 K results in creation of a long-time temperature-independent afterglow due to the tunnelling recombination between close electron and hole centres. The F-type electron centres and the VK as well as pr…
Trap spectroscopy and tunnelling luminescence in feldspars
1998
Abstract Comparative studies of tunnel luminescence, thermally stimulated luminescence (TSL), and trap energy spectra by the fractional glow technique (FGT) have been made both with sanidine and microcline feldspars. After X-irradiation at LNT these feldspars show intense tunnelling afterglow. As the temperature is raised, several TSL glow peaks may be observed, starting at 135 K. An intense peak at 250 K is common to all four investigated microclines. In samples of sanidine, tunnelling afterglow overcomes TSL up to 250–260 K. With sanidine and microcline samples, the distributions of trap activation energies vs temperature obtained by the FGT are continuous and quasi-linear. Maxima in the …
Colour centres in LiBaF3
1997
Abstract The X-ray-induced optical absorption (OA) and the spectra of magnetic circular dichroism (MCD) followed by optically detected EPR (ODEPR) have been investigated in undoped LiBaF3 crystals. According to ODEPR, the absorption bands in the spectral region 470–770 nm correspond to the F-type centres, whereas the absorption band at 420 nm is assigned to the hole centres. The redistribution of electrons to the thermal more stable F-type centres indicates that all types of colour centres are annealed in the course of the thermal release of electrons from F-type centres, accompanied by a thermostimulated luminescence.
Nature of the blue luminescence bands in PbWO4
1997
Abstract The photoluminescence spectrum of PbWO 4 is composed of blue and green bands, previously attributed to the regular WO 4 group and to the defect-related WO 3 group, respectively. Untill now only green emission was observed in the thermostimulated luminescence (TSL) above 77 K. Investigation of the TSL spectra starting from 20 K indicates that the blue band, being definitely present at least in the 28 K TSL peak, is also due to recombination emission at defect sites.
