ODMR of cd impurity centers in gg irradiated BaF2crystals
1995
Abstract The magnetic circular dichroism of the optical absorption (MCD), optically detected magnetic resonance (ODMR) as well as ESR and luminescence in Cd- doped BaF2 crystals γ-irradiated at RT were investigated. MCD signals centered at 295 nm, 290 nm and 365 nm are observed, together with corresponding radiation induced optical absorption bands in the same wavelength regions. The ODMR detected in all these bands is caused by hyperfine (hf) interaction of unpaired spin with Cd− nucleus. Three types of different Cd− related defects have been separated: 1) Cd+ c, represented by the MCD of derivative type centered at 295 nm and hf constant ACd = 480 mT, 2) Cd++c -center having lowered symme…
EPR of radiation defects in LiBaF 3 crystals
2002
EPR spectra of LiBaF 3 crystals have been investigated after X-irradiation at RT. A spectrum consisting of approximately 35 nearly equidistant EPR lines has a strong angular dependence on the line intensities. The spectrum is caused by a hyperfine interaction (hfs) of a spin S=1/2 with neighbouring groups of nuclei. The observed large number of hfs lines required Li nuclei being in the first shell and fluorine nuclei in the more distant second shell. We analysed the spectrum in the F-centre model, taking reduced hfs values of the F-centre in LiF and found qualitative explanation of the number of hfs lines. The angular dependence of the line intensities could be explained by an anisotropy of…
Laser spectroscopy of radioactive lead and thallium isotopes
1990
By collincar fast beam laser spectroscopy hyperfine structure and isotope shift have been measured of neutron deficient radioactive isotopes of lead (190Pb,191Pb,192Pb,193Pb,194Pb,195Pb,196Pb,197Pb) and thallium (188Tl190Tl,191Tl,192Tl,194Tl,196Tl). Therefrom nuclear magnetic dipole moments, electric quadrupole moments, changes of the mean square charge radii and deformation parameters are deduced and compared with predictions from theory.
Collinear laser spectroscopy on unstable isotopes—A tool of nuclear physics
1985
Atomic hyperfine structures and isotope shifts yield basic information about nuclear ground-state spins, moments and mean square charge radii. Recently, the collinear-beam laser experiments at ISOLDE have considerably enlarged the range of elements for which these studies can be extended into regions far from β-stability. The essential features of these experiments are outlined, and examples of the results on the rare-earth and radium isotopic chains are given. Finally, further improvements in sensitivity using non-optical detection are discussed.
Nuclear moments from laser spectroscopy
1988
The systematic laser spectroscopy measurements of nuclear spins, moments and charge radii from hyperfine structures and isotope shifts are reviewed from a methodical point of view. Examples are given for the typical experimental approaches and their results. Laser spectroscopy methods of direct nuclear g-factor measurement have interesting features in common with the low-temperature nuclear orientation technique. These are described in some detail and discussed in their particular physics context.
Evaluation of the magnetic moments of radium isotopes
1990
Using the relativistic linked cluster many-body perturbation procedure we have obtained the hyperfine field at the nucleus of the Ra+ ion in the2S1/2 ground state. There is good agreement between the calculated magnetic moment of213Ra and the results of a recent Zeeman measurement by the collinear laser beam technique. Detailed comparison is carried out between our result and earlier ones.
Hydrogen-related radiation defects in SiO2-based glasses
2008
Abstract Spectroscopic properties of hydrogen atom trapped in an oxygen vacancy in SiO2 glass were studied. Samples were loaded with D2 and H2 gases to convert O vacancies to pairs of Si–D and Si–H groups, and subsequently irradiated by F2 laser in order to destroy some of these groups. Electron paramagnetic resonance, infrared absorption and visible/UV absorption spectra were measured. Proton hyperfine doublet with splitting of 1.05 mT was found in all H2-treated/irradiated samples. UV-bleaching treatment showed that this signal is independent of the other, well-known hydrogen-related signals in silica. The size of the hyperfine splitting corresponds to twice the 1H nuclear Zeeman splittin…
High-resolution laser spectroscopy with the Collinear Resonance Ionisation Spectroscopy (CRIS) experiment at CERN-ISOLDE
2016
The Collinear Resonance Ionisation Spectroscopy (CRIS) experiment at CERN has achieved high-resolution resonance ionisation laser spectroscopy with a full width at half maximum linewidth of 20(1) MHz for 219;221Fr, and has measured isotopes as short lived as 5 ms with 214Fr. This development allows for greater precision in the study of hyperfine structures and isotope shifts, as well as a higher selectivity of singleisotope, even single-isomer, beams. These achievements are linked with the development of a new laser laboratory and new data-acquisition systems. publisher: Elsevier articletitle: High-resolution laser spectroscopy with the Collinear Resonance Ionisation Spectroscopy (CRIS) exp…
The Collinear Resonance Ionization Spectroscopy (CRIS) experimental setup at CERN-ISOLDE
2012
The CRIS setup at CERN-ISOLDE is a laser spectroscopy experiment dedicated to the high-resolution study of the spin, hyperfine structure and isotope shift of radioactive nuclei with low production rates (a few per second). It combines the Doppler-free resolution of the in-flight collinear geometry with the high detection efficiency of resonant ionisation. A recent commissioning campaign has demonstrated a 1% experimental efficiency, and as low as a 0.001% non-resonant ionisation. The current status of the experiment and its recent achievements with beams of francium isotopes are reported. The first identified systematic effects are discussed. publisher: Elsevier articletitle: The Collinear …
