Vy. Ivanov et al., LUMINESCENCE OF LITHIUM TRIBORATE CRYSTALS UNDER HIGH-INTENSITY SYNCHROTRON-RADIATION, Nuclear instruments & methods in physics research. Section A, Accelerators, spectrometers, detectors and associated equipment, 359(1-2), 1995, pp. 339-341
The results of a preliminary study of the luminescence of LiB3O5 singl
e crystals under high intensity synchrotron radiation are reported. Th
e dependence of the luminescence intensity (lambda(m) = 290 nm) on the
synchrotron radiation density and on the vacuum conditions is investi
gated. Two models for the observed phenomena are presented: (1) the fo
rmation of volume electrical charge under irradiation and (2) recombin
ation processes with participation of the shallow trapping centers.
