T. Awano et T. Matsuyama, SELF-TRAPPED HOLES IN AMMONIUM SILVER BROMIDE CRYSTAL, Nuclear instruments & methods in physics research. Section B, Beam interactions with materials and atoms, 91(1-4), 1994, pp. 227-229
Self-trapped holes of the forms of Br0 and Br2- are stable in (NH4)2Ag
Br3 irradiated by gamma-rays at 77 K. These sorts of self trapped hole
s are the analogues of those in (NH4)2AgI3. It is Common in alkali or
ammonium silver halides that (halogen)0 is stable at 77 K. The Br0 dec
ayed at 160 K in an annealing process. The Br2- was converted into ano
ther form of Br2- at 250 K, which decayed at 310 K.
