Abstract

Irradiation damage studies of lithium oxide (Li/sub 2/O) using optical absorption and electron spin resonance methods are reviewed. F/sup +/-centers and the defects associated with F aggregate centers were introduced in Li/sub 2/O irradiated with thermal neutrons and oxygen ions. In addition, colloidal Li metal centers were produced at the high fluences. The production process of the F/sup +/-centers was discussed from results of the oxygen-ion irradiation. The recovery behavior of F/sup +/-centers was studied by isochronal and isothermal annealing experiments.
