Conclusions
-
1.
The action of laser radiation of both the visible and UV bands on the surface of GaP monocrystals results in quenching of PL because of generation of centers of irradiative recombination.
-
2.
In addition to quenching of the initial 1.78 eV line under the effects of laser pulses with energies exceeding a certain threshold value, a new band with a maximum at 2.04 eV occurs.
