Abstract

The spectrum of photon emission from the surface of alkali-halide crystals (KBr, LiF, NaCI and NaF), bombarded by medium-energy electrons, is investigated. Two species of light emission with different nature, localization and mechanism of generation arc detected in the spectra. These are the characteristic emission of alkali metal atoms and continuous emission in a broad range of wavelengths. The intensities of the characteristic and continuous emission versus the electron beam parameters and target temperature are plotted. Possible channels of formation of the light emission arc analyzed.
