Description

The initial a.c. electroluminescent (EL) emission of ZnS(Cu) previously excited with UV light has been studied. The experiments showed that the EL build-up is made more swift by the preceding UV excitation. This result is ascribed to space charge produced by UV excitation which affects the exchange of electrons between lattice and EL defects. (author)
