摘要：
A time-resolved VUV spectroscopic study of emission and excitation spectra of CaF2:Yb2+ has been performed to investigate excitation and relaxation mechanisms of both impurity-trapped excitons and intrinsic excitons in CaF2. Host-to-impurity energy transfer mechanisms leading to formation of impurity-trapped excitons have been discussed. The change in free exciton excitation peak position with increasing lattice temperature has been measured and is well approximated by Vina's expression for the temperature shift of a semiconductor band gap. The 4f(14)-> 4f(13)5d CaF2:Yb2+ absorption bands are successfully modeled with a semi-empirical effective Hamiltonian calculation. (C) 2014 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
