S. Schweizer et al., ELECTRON-PARAMAGNETIC-RESONANCE OF DOPED AND UNDOPED BAFBR DETECTED BY RECOMBINATION LUMINESCENCE, Radiation measurements, 29(3-4), 1998, pp. 283-285
The recombination processes in the X-ray storage phosphor BaFBr:Eu2+ w
as investigated by measuring the microwave-induced changes in the reco
mbination luminescence in a (high) magnetic field. Besides the resonan
ces of the F(Br-) centre, of the V-K(Br-2(-)) centre and of the Eu2+ g
round state we observed a line of a hitherto unknown hole centre. The
maximum of the luminescence band in which the V-K(Br-2(-)) centre coul
d be detected was about 400 nm. The resonance of the unknown hole cent
re belongs to a luminescence band peaking at about 350 nm. (C) 1998 El
