Results of experimental investigations of temperature dependences of optical absorption coefficients and their light-induced changes for Bi12SiO20, Bi12TiO20:Zn, and Bi12TiO2:Ca crystals are presented. Semiconductor light diodes emitting quasimonochromatic radiation in red (625 nm), yellow (570 nm), green (505 and 515 nm), and blue (470 nm) ranges of the spectrum were used as light sources. A theoretical model of thermal- and light-induced changes in the optical absorption is considered that describes well the observed temperature dependences of the optical absorption for the Bi12SiO20 and Bi12TiO20:Ca crystals and the dynamics of light-induced changes in light absorption for the Bi12TiO2:Ca crystal at a wavelength of 470 nm and temperatures in the interval from 24 to 100°C.© (2007) COPYRIGHT SPIE--The International Society for Optical Engineering.
