The influence of pressure on recombination centres in piezoelectric luminophores

  • Published:
Czechoslovak Journal of Physics B Aims and scope

Abstract

The present paper shows that a recombination centre of the Cu+-[S−] type in the ZnS lattice has “local” piezoelectric properties. On the basis of this fact some phenomena of triboluminescence are explained and a periodic generator of light is proposed.
