Traps energy level

Color from Color Centers. This mechanism is best approached from band theory, although ligand field theory can also be used. Consider a vacancy, for example a missing CF ion in a KCl crystal produced by irradiation, designated an F-center. An electron can become trapped at the vacancy and this forms a trapped energy level system inside the band gap just as in Figure 18. The electron can produce color by being excited into an absorption band such as the E transition, which is 2.2 eV in KCl and leads to a violet color. In the alkaU haUdes E, = 0.257/where E is in and dis the... 

An analysis of RTS in this work quantitatively explains details of hole trapping processes in the tetrahedral-shaped recess quantum dot structure. Noise spectral density is given by superposition of 1/f noise and RTS pulses (Fig. 16) with the activation energy AEke= 190 meV for hole emission and AE),c= 260 meV for hole capture. RTS noise ampUtude has its maximum value at temperature range below 300 K when the quasi Fermi level coincides with the trap energy level. At temperature higher than 300 K the 1/f noise component is dominant and then parameter Cq given by (4) is used as quality and rehabihty indicator. 

We consider an excitation that migrates on a dendrimer by nearest neighbor jumps. The core is assumed to capture the energy for some time, depending on its release rate. Namely, the core functions as a reversible trap. Energy levels are assigned for each generation, such that a funnel towards the core is created... 

This means that the trap energy level must not be too far from the intrinsic level. For example p/n >> 1 implies that for x < - W/2,...

Recently the spectrum of O- has been observed on MgO by Lunsford and co-workers (50, 51). The species was formed by adsorption of N20 at low temperatures onto MgO which contained trapped electrons. By using N2170 it was shown that the species was indeed 0 The spectrum shown in Fig. 21 is characterized by gx = 2.042 and g = 2.0013 with = 19.5 and an = 103 G. From the hyperfine coupling it may be shown that the unpaired electron is localized mainly in one 2p orbital. Both the g values and the hyperfine coupling constants are consistent with the energy level diagram of Fig. 20a. The results are also consistent with the spectrum of...

Because of their importance as basic primary centers, we will now discuss the optical bands associated with the F centers in alkali halide crystals. The simplest approximation is to consider the F center - that is, an electron trapped in a vacancy (see Figure 6.12) - as an electron confined inside a rigid cubic box of dimension 2a, where a is the anion-cation distance (the Cr -Na+ distance in NaCl). Solving for the energy levels of such an electron is a common problem in quantum mechanics. The energy levels are given by... 

As shown in reactions (6.5.13) and (6.5.14), metal ion dopants influence the photoreactivity of metal oxides by acting as electron (or hole) traps thereby altering the e /h -pair recombination rate. The energy level of should be less negative than that of the... 

The excited electron may also recombine with an activator, with the following luminescence, or a trap, with the following electron capturing, within the forbidden gap. Traps and activator energy levels are caused by defects in the crystal lattice (Fig. 2.6b). 

Electron attachment rates have been measured for numerous solutes. Many of these studies were limited to three solvents cyclohexane, 2,2,4-trimethylpentane, and tetrame-thylsilane (TMS), and those rates are discussed here. What to expect in other liquids can be inferred from these results. Considerable insight has been gained into certain reactions. Equilibrium reactions of electrons are particularly interesting since they provide information not only on energy levels, as mentioned above, but also on the partial molar volume of trapped electrons. This has led to a better understanding of the mechanism of electron transport.
