Abstract.
The effect of γ-radiation with Е = 1.3 MeV energy and D γ = 10…200 krad
dose on photoconductivity and photoluminescence features of GaS 0.75 Se 0.25 〈Er〉 single
crystals was studied. When analyzing the experimental data it was established that after
doping with the rare-earth element erbium and γ-radiation the
photoconductivity value and the intensity of photoluminescence radiation increased in
the investigated samples. A defect-formation model explaining the observed
characteristics was proposed.
Keywords: photoconductivity, photoluminescence, intensity, γ-irradiation, single crystal.
