Radiationless electronic relaxation of the F center in NaI
The temperature dependence of the ground-state recovery of the F-center in NaI after optical excitations is studied with a pump-probe laser technique. At 10 K the lifetime of the relaxed excited state (tens of ns) is identified together with a much smaller 10 ps contribution possibly related to the Dexter-Klick-Russell cross-over process. © 1994
UKMARC AMC: Draft Rev 4.0: UK MARC format for archives and manuscripts control (UK MARC AMC)
This draft is the first attempt to establish a UK MARC specifically for Archives and Manuscripts Control since the British Library indicated that it would countenance such extensions to the national UK MARC format. In order to keep consistency with the general UK MARC format, standard UK MARC subject fields are not included in this document, since they should be taken from the latest version of the UK MARC manual. {A note of them should perhaps be included in UK MARC AMC.} {NB Text in braces is intended to be explanatory material for readers of this draft}. Certain other fields have not been included that might occasionally be used in the cataloguing of archival materials but would generally only be used for such materials in organizations which were combining archive
databases with library databases. This MARC version is intended for use with descriptions of archive or anuscript material that follow, or fit, the traditional style of cataloguing: we assume that these will normally relate
to paper or parchment originals. It is not intended for use with descriptions of other kinds of material. For these, fields may be drawn from the appropriate UK MARC document. MARC versions for use with archives in special formats should be developed, in order to complete the full range of facilities available to archivists and curators

Friends of the Greenwood Library Presents Marc Leepson
On Tuesday, September 11, 2012 the Friends of the Janet D. Greenwood Library hosted its fall event, which featured an evening with Marc Leepson. Leepson is a journalist, historian and the author of seven books, including Lafayette: Lessons in Leadership from the Idealist General (Palgrave/Macmillan, 2011), a concise biography of the famed Marquis de Lafayette
Relaxation and transfer processes of perturbed and unperturbed F centers studied with picosecond optical pulses.
Evidence for the crossover process after optical excitation of the F center in NaI
Ground-state recovery measurements on the F center in NaI were performed with time resolutions of both 7 ps and 200 fs. The measurements confirm the expectation of an electronic relaxation with a decay time of the order of tens of nanoseconds, which can be associated with a nonradiative transition from the relaxed excited state (RES) at low temperatures. Different from the case of NaBr, the decay channel related to the recapture of conduction electrons cannot clearly be distinguished. This is possibly related to the fact that the available time delay is considerably shorter than the ground-state recovery in the temperature range in which the dominant contribution changes from the component related to the RES lifetime to the retrapping component. Measurements of the ground-state recovery with a 200-fs time resolution show that a very fast relaxation component is present for the F center in NaI. It possesses a time constant of 9 ps at low temperature and its relative contribution with respect to the total induced transparency signal is roughly 33%. The temperature dependence of its time constant follows closely the vibrational lifetime derived from linewidth measurements of the resonant Raman spectrum. This feature is expected for the contribution to the induced transparency arising from an electronic transition during vibrational relaxation, the so-called crossover process. © 1994 The American Physical Society
Nonradiative relaxation and ionization of the F center in NaBr studied with picosecond optical pulses
With a picosecond pump-probe laser technique the recovery of the ground-state population after optical excitation of the F center in NaBr is studied. Two decay components are observed, the fastest one dominating at low temperatures. Its time constant is interpreted as the lifetime of the relaxed excited state and is established to be 61 ns at 10 K. This value is perfectly consistent with the experimental emission efficiency and the expected radiative lifetime, provided that the nonradiative transition to the ground state is assumed to occur after the relaxed excited state is reached. Within the same assumptions a nonradiative lifetime of 27 ns at zero temperature is predicted for the F center in NaI. A theoretical expression for vibronic tunneling to the ground state from a thermalized excited state is applied to the F center in alkali halides and is shown to agree equally well with the experimental emission efficiencies as the Dexter-Klick-Russell criterion. The same expression also accounts for the strong temperature dependence of the nonradiative relaxation process observed in NaBr below 100 K. At higher temperatures an accurate analysis of the radiationless transition rate is encumbered by the influence of ionization on the lifetime of the excited state. The relative contribution of the second, much slower decay component increases rapidly above 70 K and is related to retrapping of electrons released by ionization of F and F centers. © 1992 The American Physical Society
