Abstract

Results of absorption spectra studies in Mg doped Al~2~O~3~ monocrystals are described. It is shown that due to Mg doping dye centres appear together with the associated additional absorption bands with maxima at 585, 475 and 260 nm. Kinetics of the formation (destruction) of these centres) of these centres in the process of thermal treatment is considered. An assumption on the nature of dye centres and the related absorption bands is proposed together with an evaluation of oscillator strength. Dependences of diffusion coefficients of the subject centres on thermal treatment temperatures are derived.
