Abstract

AbstractSingle AgCl crystals doped with Cu2+ and Ni2+ were studied by means of electron spin resonance. As grown crystals contain three different Ni2+ centers which reduce to Ni+ defects under illumination at 50 K with blue light. Six Ni+ defects were found with tetragonal, orthorhombic, and cubic symmetry. At 101 K the orthorhombic centers transform to the tetragonal defects. The latter become thermally unstable at 135 K and induce the decay of the Cu2+ centers.
