Abstract

The necessity of development of a receiver of ultraviolet radiation in the visible region of the spectrum using corundum single crystals with various impurities is substantiated. The results of experimental studies of the revealed effective converter – single crystal of corundum with impurities are presented. The excitation and radiation spectra of luminescence were also obtained. This work will help to expand the field of research of spectral and luminescence properties of corundum in the vacuum-ultraviolet (VUV) region of the spectrum. It will provide a possibility not only to register the VUV and UV radiation, but also to visualize the object.
