Abstract
The spectra of intrinsic luminescence excitation by synchrotron radiation (6–32 eV) at 8 K have been analyzed for NaCl, KCl, RbCl, KBr, RbBr, CsBr, MgO, CaO and YalO 3 crystals. In all crystalsv (except MgO and CaO) the process of multiplication of electronic excitations (MEE) causes a sharp increase of the intensity of self-trapped exciton emission, but leads (in KBr and NaCl) to the decrease of intra-band luminescence efficiency. The analysis of the intensity ratio spectra for two components of exciton emission allows us to separate the process of secondary exciton creation by hot photolectrons (NaCl, KBr, YAlO 3). The threshold energies of excitonic and electron-hole mechanisms of MEE are compared for a number of alkali halides.
