  • Abstract
    Neutron-induced defects in silver doped lithium tetraborate (Li2B4O7:Ag) are identified and characterized using electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy and thermoluminescence (TL). Neutron irradiation induced two unique defects detectable by EPR. Both of these neutron-induced defects are substantially more thermally stable than as-grown crystal defects. Models for the neutron-induced defects are proposed.
