Abstract: | Pulsed spectrometry with time resolution has been used to study processes for creation of self-localized excitons and F centers under the action of a pulsed electron flux of nanosecond duration at temperatures in the region from 80 to 600 K in CaF2 and LiF crystals. It is shown that an alternative to creation of self-localized excitons in the triplet state with increased crystal temperature during irradiation is formation of an F-H pair. A comparative analysis of the effectiveness of the processes for creation of elementary defects in the crystals studied is given.Translated from Izvestiya Vysshikh Uchebnykh Zavedenii, Fizika, No. 1, pp. 13–19, January, 1995. |
