Abstract

This is a review of the recent activity of a collaboration on the basis of an INTAS grant ‘The luminescence process — a study of the excitation and radiation dynamics of materials using synchrotron radiation’. For the following crystals (CeF 3, LaF 3:Ce, PWO, LSO:Ce, CsI, RbI, KI, CsF, CsCl, BaF 2, CsPbCl 3, etc.) in the UV, VUV, XUV, and X-ray regions the sequential steps of the energy conversion of a high-energy photon into a luminescence quantum have been studied: (i) absorption; (ii) multiplication of electronic excitations; (iii) migration in the process of thermalisation; (iv) emission center excitation.
