Three absorption bands at 349, 409 and 478 nm are ascribed to the F interstitials through the variation in difference additional absorption values. The transformation of interstitial F atoms to F ions (Fi-) is demonstrated using data with increasing radiation dose. The decrease in the 600 nm absorption band and the occurrence of the 580 nm band correspond to F2+ center conversion to F center. The complex (F^--Fi0 ) might be associated with the 962 and 1196 nm bands.展开更多

The concentrations for F- and F + -centers at 204, 232, and 255 nm were determined to be 1.361×10 17 , 0.098×10 17 , and 0.325×10 17cm-3 , respectively. Studies have shown that the thermoluminescence (TL) glow curve exhibits a prominent 450 K peak that matches well the first-order fitting curve. The thermal activation energy E and frequency factor s of the trap were determined to be 0.94456±0.00545 eV and 5.8703×10 11 s-1 . With this theoretical analysis, a simple one-trap/one-center TL model is presented to provide a theoretical explanation of the TL process.展开更多
