Abstract

Luminescence properties of a pure CdWO4 crystal and a CdWO4:Mo crystal doped with molybdenum in different concentrations have been investigated. The effect of molybdenum impurity on the intrinsic luminescence of CdWO4 has been found, and the role of the impurity in the formation of new luminescence centers has been investigated. The features of the formation of the intrinsic and impurity luminescence excitation spectra of CdWO4 and CdWO4:Mo crystals in the fundamental-absorption region have been considered. The reflection spectra of the CdWO4 crystal have been investigated taking into account the crystal structure anisotropy.
