Charge evolution of F₂ centers being in different spin states

Abstract

Time‐resolved pulse spectrometry methods have been used to study the processes of formation and destruction of F2, F2+, F2– color centers in the time range from 10 ns to 0.1s after irradiation by the electron nanosecond pulse in LiF crystals. It has been found that the direction charge evolution of F2 center under radiation depends on the spin state it is in. (© 2007 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)
