Abstract
Results of investigation of energy transfer mechanism in SrF2 crystals doped with Pr3+ ions are presented. Temperature dependences of 5d-4f and exciton emission in this material under X-ray excitation, and thermostimulated luminescence (TSL) in temperature range 80-300 K are studied. It has been established that in SrF2-Pr3+ crystals the consecutive electron-hole capture mechanism of energy transfer takes place. Also we found that hole centers made a contribution to energy transfer from primary electrons and holes to Pr3+ ions.
