Abstract

A new phenomenon — intense luminescence of noncolored lithium fluoride (LiF) crystals excited by an electrodeless pulsed microwave discharge at the prebreakdown stage of development — is observed. This luminescence consists of the luminescence of short-lived aggregate F2 and F 3 + color centers at room temperature. It is shown that the density of short-lived color centers induced in the surface layer of LiF crystals by a microsecond microwave discharge reaches values of ∼1019−1020 cm−3.
