understanding of the mechanism

recovery is a thermodynamical process which can be accelerated by:

  • significant heating
  • photons:
  • ptical bleaching (ionization of color centers)

stimulated recovery (intra-center resonant transition) initiated by minimum photon energy (IR)

necessary conditions:

  • at least one energy level above the radiating state
  • re-trapping should be strongly suppressed (small number of centers)
