Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this paper, a variety of spectral diffusion effects, including spontaneous resonance frequency changes on the 10-100 MHz scale which lead to apparent fluctuations in the absorption line width and shape, discontinuous jumps in the resonance frequency of 100-2000 MHz on a time scale longer than 2.5 s, and long-lived light-induced changes in resonance frequency, were observed for some molecules.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this article, the physical origin of the luminescence bands of porous silicon is discussed using results of calculations of electronic and optical properties of silicon nanostructures, and it is shown that polysilanes can emit visible light in some cases but with radiative lifetimes in the nanosecond range.

TL;DR: In this paper, a new comprehensive approach to the radiative processes in octahedrally coordinated Cr 3+ is presented, which is described by the electronic manifolds defined by total electronic energies dependent on the positions of the ions, calculated with inclusion of spin-orbit and electron-phonon interactions, and related to them discrete oscillation states.

Journal ArticleDOI

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this article, the frequency dependence of the conductivity of various samples of porous silicon in the regime 10 Hz to 100 kHz at different temperatures was measured. But the conductivities in this regime are only weakly temperature dependent, which suggests that the density of state at the Fermi level is finite.

Journal ArticleDOI
