Luminescence Centers in Crystals edited by N. G. Basov.

This collection of papers describes investigations of luminescence centers in II-VI crystal phosphors, ruby, and molecular crystals. These investigations were carried out using spec­troscopy in a wide range of wavelengths, electron paramagnetic resonance, and polarization methods. The relationship b...
