Summary
On the basis of high-resolution and time-resolved fluorescence spectra, a model is proposed for the interpretation of the fluorescence lines originating from various perturbed NO −2 centers situated in the neighbourhood of the K+ ion of the NaNO2:KNO2 crystal. Since their excited state energies are lower than that of the host, these perturbed NO −2 ions act as traps for the host singlet exciton. On the assumption that the perturbation giving rise to those traps results from an interaction of the impurity ion K+ with its nearest neighbours, the observed position of the energy levels of the various traps can be reconciled with crystal field calculations.
