Photoinduced spectral diffusion in organic glasses with impurities
Gorokhovskii A. A., Zavt G. S., Pal'm V. V.
Changes have been observed in the intensity, width, and shape of the gap in the 0-0 optical absorption band of an impurity molecule in an amorphous polymer subjected to nonresonant optical excitation. The effect is linked with a change caused in the distribution of the populations of the two-level systems of the glass by photoexcited nonequilibrium phonons.
