Abstract

It is shown that KMgF3(Eu) crystals efficiently store energy from 250–320nm UV irradiation (the wavelength range most dangerous for health). The composition of anion and cation dopant determines both the intensity and the spectra of the thermostimulated luminescence. The mechanism of energy storage resulting from UV irradiation with energy lower than the band gap is proposed.
