Photoinduced effects in a mordenite-AgI inclusion compound

Abstract
This paper describes the photoinduced effects in a mordenite-AgI inclusion compound due to Ar laser light. Its photosensitization has an irradiation power density threshold instead of the energy density threshold usually observed in many photosensitive materials. The threshold decreases as the temperature decreases. After a certain period of irradiation, the photoinduced reaction occurs accompanied by transitory luminescence. The above characteristics are not observed in pure AgI. To explain these characteristics a model is presented in which Ar laser irradiation makes a photoinduced intermediate state of AgI in mordenite.
