Abstract
Low-temperature photoluminescence (4.2 and 35 K) has been used to stud y the defects created by high-energy particle irradiation (gamma rays, electrons, ions) of silicon on sapphire (SOS) films. It was found tha t the noble gas atoms implanted into silicon layers take an active par t in the processes of interaction with radiation damage. Data on the t emperature stability of luminescence centres are given. The residual c ompressive stress in SOS films is estimated using the photoluminescenc e method.
