Abstract

We report the spectroscopic characterization in air and in vacuum atmosphere of the visible luminescence related to silica surface defects. Time resolved photoluminescence technique allows to discern two contribution: the first one, observed both in air and in vacuum, is the well known blue band, peaked around 2.8 eV decaying in Ï„~5 ns; the second, only observed in vacuum, is a structured emission in the violet range characterized by two vibronic progressions spaced 1370 cm-1 and 360 cm-1 decaying in Ï„~90 ns. On the basis of these spectroscopic properties, we revise the structural models of luminescent defects.
