STUDY OF TRAPPING PROPERTIES AND IR STIMULABILITY OF ZINC SULPHIDE,

Abstract

The infrared stimulability of 4 different types of ZnS phosphors is investigated at low temperatures in the wavelength range between 2 and 11 micro meters. It is found that the stimulability depends on the occupation of a quasi-continuum of very shallow electron traps. The release process of these traps is shown to be a tunnel process. The method of space charge limited currents for detecting traps and trap distributions is discussed. (Author)
