摘要：
The properties of various inorganic scintillator materials with different origin of their VUV luminescence have been studied under pulsed excitation by XUV (50-1000 eV) synchrotron radiation. A comparison of spectral and timing characteristics of these crystalline VUV emitters has been performed. The processes of energy transfer from the host crystal to the luminescence centers of different nature were analyzed from the features of excitation spectra in the regions of inner-shell absorption.
