The band maxima of transient optical absorption spectra observed by pulse radiolysis in ethylamine (EA)/tetrahydrofuran (THF) mixtures containing sodium tetraphenylboron are correlated with electron spin resonance (esr) hyperfine splitting constants obtained in potassium/EA/THF solutions. The data suggest that the optical spectra can be attributed to the same 'monomeric' species as observed by esr in alkali metal solutions.


The electron spin resonance and optical absorption spectra of crystals of KCl containing silver impurity ions were examined after the crystals had been X -irradiated at 77 °K. It is shown that the silver impurity ions act as traps for both electrons and positive holes. A description is given of the annealing behaviour of the crystals after low-temperature irradiation.

We report on photoreduction of Ag+ in aluminoborate glasses induced by irradiation of a femtosecond laser. Novel fluorescence was observed in the femtosecond laser irradiated glass when excited by a 365 nm ultraviolet lamp. Optical absorption, emission, and electron spin resonance spectra of the glass samples demonstrated that after the laser irradiation, portions of silver ions near the focused part of the laser beam inside the glass were reduced to silver atoms, which resulted in the formation of the characteristic fluorescence. The observed phenomenon may have promising applications in the fabrication of functional optical devices.
