Abstract
Excitation spectra near the indirect exciton edge of AgBr at 1.8K are reported for several luminescence lines from weakly localized excitons. Excitation below the exciton absorption threshold reveals several excited bound exciton states the energetic positions of which are determined. For excitation above the threshold, strong energy dependent structure is observed. It is interpreted in terms of resonant trapping of free excitons in both ground and excited bound exciton states associated with emission of LO(Γ), long wavelength acoustic and intervalley TA(X) and LA(X) phonons as well as combinations and overtones of these. From measurements in doped crystals two bound exciton systems are found to be correlated with Cd 2+ and Ca 2+, respectively.
