Abstract
The processes of multiplication of electronic excitations (MEE), connected with the creation of secondary excitons or electron-hole (e-h) pairs by hot conduction electrons, are realized in wide-gap metal halides and oxides. In oxides, secondary e-h pairs can be also formed by 27-40 eV photons due to L 1 VV Auger transitions (with the participation of 2s oxygen holes). The excitation spectra of luminescence and the creation spectra of electron F centres or hole V centres have been measured for Na 6 Al 6 Si 6 O 24 (NaI) 2x sodalites and MgO:Be, respectively, at 8-80 K. A high local density of excitations has been revealed under MEE conditions in KBr and Br sodalites with self-trapping excitons and holes.
