Luminescent Processes Elucidated by Simple Experiments on ZnS.

Schwankner, R.; And Others

Journal of Chemical Education, v58 n10 p806-09 Oct 1981

Describes some impurity-related optical properties of semiconductors, with special emphasis on the luminescence of zinc sulfide (ZnS). Presents and interprets five experiments using a ZnS screen, ultraviolet lamp, transparent Dewar liquid nitrogen, and a helium/neon gas base. Includes application of luminescence measurements to archaeology. (SK)
