Аннотация:Here, we present the results of our study of LGT and CTGS optical properties under electron and proton irradiations. All investigated samples were cut from crystals grown in JSC “Fomos-Materials” Co. using Czochralski method in iridium crucibles. Electron irradiation was performed at the Center of Physical Measurements Investigations of IPCE RAS using the linear accelerator (energy 6 MeV, flux 4·1012 cm–2·s–1, fluences up to 1.2∙1016 cm-2). Proton irradiation was performed on linear accelerator I-2 at the Center of Collective Use “Kamiks” of ITEP (energy 20 MeV, flux 1·1011 cm–2·s–1, fluence 1·1014 cm–2). Optical properties of samples were measured using UV-Vis-NIR spectrophotometer “Cary-5000” (Agilent Technologies) at non-polarized light taking into account the dichroism (with sample rotation by 90° around the light direction). After irradiation, all samples changed color, become more colored with a grayish tint. Irradiation both with protons and electrons leads to increase of absorption in all investigated wave-length region. The most significant effects are observed in the region of (250-450) nm. The greatest increase in absorption in the region of (250-500) nm is observed after the electron irradiation fluence of 4·1015 cm–2. The subsequent increase of fluence didn’t lead to the further increase of absorption.
