Investigations of natural and synthetic quartz specimens by cathodoluminescence (CL)
microscopy and spectroscopy, electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) and trace-element …

The discovery of strong luminescence at room temperature from silicon cluster has attracted
an enormous attention in recent years due to its potential applications in Si-based …

McKeever gives us a comprehensive survey of thermoluminescence, an important, versatile,
and widely-used experimental technique. Bringing together previously isolated specialized …

Cathodoluminescence (CL) spectroscopy has been used to investigate the irradiation-
sensitive defect structure of ultrapure synthetic quartz at 295 and 80 K. CL emissions are …

Linear polarisation, with respect to the z axis, and the effect of the subsequent laser-induced
excitation on the luminescence and transient optical absorption induced by irradiation of …

A luminescence database for minerals and materials has been complied from the literature,
the aim being to create a resource that will aid in the analysis of luminescence spectral of …

A new cathodoluminescence-microscope has been developed with a considerably
improved detection limit. Time-dependent luminescence intensity changes observed during …

The adiabatic potential surface for triplet exciton self-trapping and Frenkel-defect pair
creation in SiO 2 has been studied with use of a periodic supercell model and a self …

Three varieties of E′ centers with a spin state, S= 1 2, and with a G-tensor, G x∼ G y∼
2.0003, G z∼ 2.0018, were identified in the early reports on paramagnetic states in …

Samples of pegmatite quartz from several localities in Norway and Namibia were
investigated by cathodoluminescence (CL) microscopy and spectroscopy, electron …
