Abstract

Luminescence properties (spectra, yields, kinetics) of Tl ions induced by energy transfer from different types of anion excitons were studied and compared with those observed under direct Tl ion excitation by light quanta from A and C absorption bands in KI-Tl crystal at low temperature. The mechanism of energy transfer from excitons to the impurity ions was proposed based on the exciton-created defects participating in the impurity ion excitation.
