Abstract
]]> Until now, Ionoluminescence (IL) has been mainly exploited to detect impurities or defects inside materials, most of which, synthetic. This paper gives a summary on new applications of IL, going one step further by applying the technique to minerals, simulants and synthetic analogues. A new IL model is discussed.Keywords: Ionoluminescence; mineral; defects; impurities; mechanism.
Resumen
Hasta el presente, la Ionoluminiscencia (IL) ha venido siendo utilizada principalmente para detectar la presencia de defectos en materiales, la mayoría de los cuales son sintéticos. En este trabajo se presenta un breve sumario de nuevas aplicaciones de la IL, yendo unos pasos más allá en la aplicación de la técnica a minerales, análogos y sintéticos. Se presenta, también, un nuevo modelo de IL para explicar los resultados obtenidos.
Descriptores: Ionoluminiscencia; mineral; defectos; impurezas; mecanismo.
