ABSTRACTThe effect of the ion implantation (Fe) on LiNbO3, MgO, and A12O3 crystals is studied using electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR). EPR measurements on these crystals were performed as a function of fluence at room temperature. The fluence was 1 × 1014 and 1 × 1016 ions/cm2. The unpaired carrier concentration increases with increasing fluence. The photosensitivity of these crystals was determined by observing in situ the effect of the laser illumination on the EPR signal and measuring the decay and the growth of the EPR signal. The EPR signal of Fe3+ was found to decrease in both MgO, and Al2O3; and was found to increase in LiNbO3. This indicated that in case of MgO, and A12O3 Fe3+ will transfer into Fe2+/Fe4+, but in case of LiNbO3 Fe2+/ Fe4+ will transfer into Fe3+; increasing the EPR signal. This was found primary due to some Fe2+ and Fe4+ ions, which is not intentionally doped on the LiNbO3 crystal but exist as a defect on the crystal.

Electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) was used to study high-purity semi-insulating 4H-SiC irradiated with 2 MeV electrons at room temperature. The EPR signal of the EI4 defect was found to be dominating in samples irradiated and annealed at ~750°C. Additional large-splitting 29Si hyperfine (hf) lines and also other 13C and 29Si hf structures were observed. Based on the observed hf structures and annealing behaviour, the complex between a negative carbon vacancy-carbon antisite pair (VCCSi–) and a distance positive carbon vacancy ( ) is tentatively proposed as a possible model for the EI4 defect.

Well-resolved electron spin resonance (e.s.r.) spectra are reported and analyzed for the radicals produced when samples of solid adamantane doped with alkyl substituted cycloalkenes are γ-irradiated at room temperature.
