Abstract
We investigate the spectra of the x-ray radiation-induced absorption of SrCl2−Ce crystals over the spectral range 345–830 nm and their temperature transformations in the interval from 77 to 450 K. We found that radiative color centers are characterized by a complex spectrum of induced absorption that contains wide bands of photochromic PC (750, 519, 378 nm) and PC+ (620, 446, 340 nm) centers and quasi-linear bands of Ce2+ centers. The most significant thermal transformations of radiative color centers occur in the vicinity of the thermostimulated luminescence peak of 394 K, at which the holes of the PC+ centers recombine with the electrons of the Ce2+ centers.
