Abstract:It is well known that the larger the concentration of F-centers, the smaller the efficiency of the F-F' conversion (1). This phenomenon arises also if a colored crystal is illuminated in its F-band at room temperature. A less efficient F -F1 conversion is connected with a change in equilibrium accompanied by a reverse conversion from FI-to F-centers owing to a tunnelling effect (2 to 6), or to the preferentially stronger Coulomb attraction of the 6 -centers for the electrons coming from FI-centers (8) and (5).… Show more
