Abstract
The experimentally observed presence in NaCl and KC1 crystals of comparable concentrations of complexes between divalent impurity cations and positive-ion vacancies in the ground and first excited states, is shown to be in agreement with the results yielded by the Born-Mayer theory of ionic crystals. Theoretical estimates for the binding energy of the first excited state of the Sr2+ impurity complex and of the vacancy pair in NaCl and KC1 crystals are presented and discussed.
