Experimental evidence for two different precursors of Eγ′ centers in silica
2004
Abstract Electron paramagnetic resonance measurements of concentration and line shape of E γ ′ centers induced by γ ray irradiation are presented for natural and synthetic commercial silica with different OH contents. Synthetic materials with OH content >200 ppm by weight show one line shape for all investigated doses. In contrast, the other materials show a different line shape at low irradiation doses. Differences are also observed in the concentration growth of the E γ ′ centers in synthetic wet materials and in the other materials. The results are interpreted as evidence of two E γ ′ centers distinguishable by their line shape and having different precursors.
