X-Ray irradiation at room temperature produces several paramagnetic centres in rare-earth activated K2YF5 crystals, whose thermal annealing behaviour can be linked with the occurrence of thermoluminescence (TL) glow peaks. In this paper, continuous wave (CW) and pulsed paramagnetic resonance techniques are used to study the structure of a very stable radiation-induced centre, which may be involved in the TL peak at ∼390 °C reported for Ce- and Tb-activated crystals. From the spectra the centre’s g tensor and hyperfine (nuclear quadrupole) tensors for several 19F and 39K neighbouring nuclei are extracted, but no self-hyperfine interaction could be detected. Based on the analysis of the interaction tensors, a model is constructed consisting of an oxygen-related radical (e.g.O− or O2−) on a substitutional F− position in the mirror plane of the YF7 polyhedra. Such a centre most probably corresponds to a trapped-hole state.

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics (PCCP) is an international journal co-owned by 19 physical chemistry and physics societies from around the world. This journal publishes original, cutting-edge research in physical chemistry, chemical physics and biophysical chemistry. To be suitable for publication in PCCP, articles must include significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry; this is the most important criterion that reviewers and Editors will judge against when evaluating submissions. The journal has a broad scope and welcomes contributions spanning experiment, theory, computation and data science. Topical coverage includes spectroscopy, dynamics, kinetics, statistical mechanics, thermodynamics, electrochemistry, catalysis, surface science, quantum mechanics, quantum computing and machine learning. Interdisciplinary research areas such as polymers and soft matter, materials, nanoscience, energy, surfaces/interfaces, and biophysical chemistry are welcomed if they demonstrate significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry. Joined experimental/theoretical studies are particularly appreciated when complementary and based on up-to-date approaches.
