H. Moriyama et al., IN-SITU LUMINESCENCE MEASUREMENT OF IRRADIATION DEFECTS IN LITHIUM SILICATES, Nuclear instruments & methods in physics research. Section B, Beam interactions with materials and atoms, 91(1-4), 1994, pp. 317-321
An in-situ luminescence measurement of lithium ortho- and metasilicate
s was performed under H+ beam irradiation. Luminescence bands of broad
width were observed at 380, 420 and 490 nm. The temperature dependenc
e of the luminescence intensity was not monotonical in the temperature
range from 300 to 850 K. The intensity increased at the temperatures
around 650 K and then decreased drastically above the temperature. The
production behavior of irradiation defects was discussed on the basis
of the observations.
