Abstract
LiTaO3 single crystals were doped with57Co. Heat treatments of the crystals in the various atmospheres (Ar, Ar/H2 etc.) very sensitively influenced the charge states of iron formed after the EC of57Co. Fe2+ Fe3+ and metallic clusters are formed depending on the treatments in the various atmospheres. The observed effects were found reversible by changing the reducing and oxidising atmospheres.
