    Exciton self-trapping into diatomic and triatomic molecular complexes in xenon cryocrystals

    No full text
    The recent study of molecular trapped centers in Xe cryocrystals was extended on triatomic self-trapped excitons. Time- and spectrally-resolved molecular luminescence was measured in the temperature range 5–60 K. The processes of intrinsic exciton self-rapping into diatomic and triatomic molecular complexes and extrinsic exciton trapping at lattice imperfections were separated by selective photoexcitation of Xe cryocrystals by synchrotron radiation. The temperature dependencies of triplet lifetimes of molecular exciton subbands were measured for the first time

    Prompt and delayed secondary excitons in rare gas solids

    No full text
    Direct and indirect creation of excitons in rare gas solids has been investigated with reflectivity and luminescence spectroscopy. For the heavy rare gas solids Kr and Xe, new and more reliable exciton parameters have been deduced. With time-resolved luminescence spectroscopy, fast and delayed secondary-exciton creation has been established and separated. Thermalization of photocarriers and their delayed recombination have been analyzed, including a first attempt to investigate the influence of excitation density on the carrier dynamics. The existence of excitonic side bands of ionization limits Ei (either band gap or inner-shell ionization limits) in prompt secondary exciton creation has been established. The threshold energies of these side bands are given by Eth≈Ei nEex (n is integer, Eex is exciton energy). The side bands are ascribed to the formation of electronic polaron complexes, superimposed to inelastic scattering of photoelectrons
