A Minireview of the Natures of Radiation-Induced Point Defects in Pure and Doped Silica Glasses and Their Visible/Near-IR Absorption Bands, with Emphasis on Self-Trapped Holes and How They Can Be Controlled
Figure 1
Modes of defect formation in insulators subjected to various types of ionizing radiations and/or particles of sufficiently high energy to create “knock-on” damage. See [1] for discussions of the indicated processes.
