Photoelectronic properties in silver halide microcrystals

Abstract

The action curves of free photoelectrons and shallow-trapped electrons in silver halide microcrystals are obtained by microwave absorption phase-sensitivity detection technique. Through comparing the relationship between electronic amounts and exciting intensity, the theory of Gurney-Mott optical absorption is verified. The electronic decay properties in different silver halide microcrystals are analyzed and the effects of electronic behavior on the sensitization properties in silver halide microcrystals are discussed.
