Article Description

Data are presented on the optical absorption and emission of F-aggregate centers in NaCl:OH-. In particular, we have studied the properties of the laser-active (F2+)H centers. The formation of the (F2+)H center is temperature dependent. One mechanism operates below and another above 50 K. The bleaching of the (F2+)H-center emission observed under intense Nd:YAG or He-Ne laser irradiation, due to reorientation of the emitting centers, is accompanied by a process at low temperatures that is predominant at temperatures below 20 K and involves the ionization of the X or F3 centers always present in the crystal. Thus the laser-active (F2+)H centers are destroyed by electron capture but are reformed by F-band light irradiation, which reverses the bleaching process. © 1991 The American Physical Society.
