Abstract

Initial data are reported for X-ray induced luminescence and thermoluminescence from a number of compounds of interest for electro-optic applications. The materials used were LiNbO3, LiTaO3, Ba2NaNb5O15 and LiIO3. In general the signals were weak with the strongest features of both radio-luminescence and thermoluminescence occurring in the temperature range 30 to 100 K. The techniques have revealed a number of defect states in each of the materials.
