Description

The experimental data on the irradiation of ZnSe(O, Te)-crystals with γ-quanta, protons and neutrons are presented and discussed. The mechanism for heightening the concentration of luminescence centers of C1-type ZniVZnTeSe (λmax ∼640 nm) and C2-type VZnZniOSe (λmax∼605 nm), accompanied by an increase in the radioluminescence intensity is submitted. During p-irradiation, hydrogen, generated in the process of proton thermalization, interacts with oxygen that the C2-centers contain which results in the C2-center destruction, a decrease in the intensity and the λmax shift towards the long-wave range
