ABSTRACTImpurity centers in quartz play a significant role in the behavior of precision crystal resonators subjected to ionizing radiation. The substitutional Al center, charge compensated by Na, Li, H or a hole, is now known to be the primary contributing factor in most radiation-induced effects. Acoustic loss measurements, ESR measurements, optical studies and IR studies of these defects, over extended temperature ranges, have contributed substantially to our understanding of the impurity centers' role. Radiation-induced frequency and acoustic loss changes in quartz crystal resonators are now understood in terms of the evolving character of the defect center in a radiation field. This understanding has prompted material modification efforts such as high temperature electrolysis and doping technologies which permit, for instance, the fabrication of frequency control devices that are little affected by hostile environments.

Abstract Electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectra of Mn2+ centers in 11 langbeinites, A2+B22+ (SO4)32-, with A+ = NH4+, K+, Rb+ or Tl+ and B2+ = Mg2+, Ca2+, Zn2+ or Cd2+, are measured over relatively large temperature ranges chosen to cover phase transitions, if any. For 7 langbeinites which do not contain Mg2+, phase transitions are observed, but no more than one low temperature phase is distinguishable by EPR. Except for the K-Zn langbeinite, only one defect center is noticeable in that phase. The low temperature EPR parameters are reported, and their temperature dependence is discussed with respect to correlations between structure and phase transition characteristics and to the trigger mechanism.

Sm2+ ion-doped Al2O3–SiO2 glasses were prepared using sol-gel and melt-quenching methods; the redox equilibrium and spectral hole burning were investigated. The Sm3+ ions were reduced into Sm2+ by heating in H2 gas or x-ray irradiation. The redox between the Sm3+ and Sm2+ obeyed first-order kinetics, the rate of which was larger for the sol-gel glasses. The Sm3+ ions were also reduced by x-ray irradiation and the activation energy for redox equilibrium was half of that for the glasses treated in H2 gas. Two different mechanisms were proposed for the redox reaction of the samarium ions. In the x-ray irradiated glasses, the Sm3+ ions were reduced into Sm2+ by electron transfer from the oxygen defect center, whereas the H2-gas reaction removed the oxygen ions to reduce the Sm3+ ions. The spectral hole burning of the x-ray-irradiated glasses could be burned by the reverse reaction of the reduction of the Sm3+ ions; that is, the electron transfer from the excited Sm2+ into the surrounding oxygen. A short distance between the Sm2+ and oxygen defect centers allowed fast hole burning. On the other hand, the hole burning in the H2-treated glasses was performed by electron transfer between Sm2+ and another trapping center such as Sm3+.

Triplet center with spin state S = 1 is detected in the EPR spectrum of the self-assembled 6H SiC nanostructure obtained by non-equilibrium boron diffusion into the n-type 6H SiC epitaxial layer (EL) under conditions of the controlled injection of the silicon vacancies at the temperature of T = 900°C. From the analysis of the angular dependences of the EPR spectrum and the numerical diagonalization of the spin Hamiltonian, the value of the zero-field splitting constant D and g-factor are found to be D = 1140•10-4см-1 and gpar = 1.9700, gper = 1.9964. Based on the hyperfine (hf) structure of the defect originating from the hf interaction with one 14N nuclei, the large value of the zero-field splitting constant D and technological conditions of the boron diffusion into the n-type 6H SiC EL, the triplet center is tentatively assigned to the defect center consisting of nitrogen atom and silicon vacancy.
