Abstract: | The photoluminescence spectra of CdS single crystals irradiated by electrons (E = 1.2 MeV, Φ = 2×1017 cm?2) are investigated in the visible and near-infrared regions of electromagnetic radiation. Some samples of the CdS single crystals are preliminarily irradiated by neutrons (E = 2 MeV, Φ = 2 × 1018 cm?2) with the aim of increasing the concentration of initial structural defects. From analyzing the peak intensities of photoluminescence in the irradiated single crystals at the wavelengths λm = 0.720, 1.030, and 0.605 μm, it is concluded that the CdS samples with a low concentration of structural defects in the initial state possess the highest resistance to electron radiation. It is assumed that the observed transformation of the photoluminescence spectra of the imperfect CdS single crystals subjected to electron irradiation is determined by either the mechanisms of subthreshold defect formation or the transformation of the defect complexes in elastic and electric fields near the large structural damages of the crystal lattice. |
