摘要
The influence of gamma-irradiation on the spectral properties of YAG and YAG:Ce (similar to 0.12 and similar to 0.2 at %) single crystals is studied. The interrelation between the changes of gamma-induced absorption of Ce3+ and of some color centers in the crystals is established. It is shown that the analysis of radiative behavior of Ce3+ in YAG:Ce crystals gives the opportunity: to evaluate a quantity of electron-hole traps influencing on cerium ions in as-grown crystals and involving in radiation processes of cerium ions recharging; to predict the concentration changes of Ce3+ in the crystals irradiated by doses (1.13-5.5) x 10(7) rad of gamma-rays. The reasons of the activator ions concentration impact on the various radiation behaviors of.-induced absorption and optical quality of these crystals are discussed.
