The concentration of oxygen dipoles is monitored by measuring the intensity of the ionic thermocurrent peak as well as by absorption and luminescence spectroscopies. Results from three methods agree within experimental error and yield an activation energy of (1.2 /- 0.1) eV for the diffusion of isolated oxygen centres in the crystal. (c) 2006 Elsevier Ltd.
