Abstract

An investigation on the electron delocalization processes of optically excited states of Ce³⁺ impurities in Lu₂SiO₅ was performed. The temperature and spectrally resolved photoconductivity study was used for the purpose. It was found that by monitoring separately the strength of the photocurrent, three different delocalization processes namely direct photoionization, tunneling and thermal ionization were identified.
