Abstract
IR stimulation spectra are recorded for ZnS phosphors made in various ways. Bands at about 1.0 and 0.55 eV are the most characteristic; some specimens give bands at about 0.36 and 0.30 eV. The 1 eV band usually has a substructure, whose details vary in thermal stability. All bands in the 0.85–2.3μm range behave identically in response to intensity variation. The mechanism of IR stimulation is discussed.
