Abstract

A system of two electronic colour centres in alkali halide crystals is considered. One centre is 'primed' (i.e. negatively charged) and the other is electrically neutral. Some of these systems are shown to be energy-unstable against the spontaneous radiative tunnel transition (RTT) of the extra electron of the system from one colour centre to the other. The probability of RTT is calculated for a few typical systems (e.g. F'+M, M'+R, etc.) in a KCl crystal.
