Abstract
Abstract A brief survey of our studies of free and self-trapped excitons (FE and STE) in alkali halide crystals under hydrostatic pressure up to 12.5 kbar at 4.2–140 K is presented. Main attention is paid to the following effects observed: (1) the strong coupling of three energy levels of FE in CsI revealing itself as an exciton analog of pressure-scanned Fermi resonance; (2) emergence of a new emission band of STE in CsI under pressure; (3) a large pressure shift of the thermal quenching curve for STE emission in NaCl.
