Description

The effect of annealing on fast neutron damaged selenium single crystals is studied. Recovery of conductance under illumination is one and a half decades at temperatures near 200 K after 80 K irradiation and is explained by close-pair recombination. During isothermal annealing the dark conductivity activation energy increases. Also a shift of +14 meV of the exciton peak in the wavelength modulated reflectance spectrum is observed. These effects are explained by trapping of interstitials to dislocations and impurities attracted to them. (author)
