The nature of the impurity emission center and the energy transfer mechanisms from intrinsic electronic
excitations to the Mn2+ impurity centers in the CaSO4 − Mn crystal have been investigated. The
methods of vacuum ultraviolet, atomic absorption and luminescence spectroscopy are used in a wide
temperature range from 5 K to 300 K. The energy transfer of intrinsic electronic excitations to impurity
emission centers in CaSO4 − Mn has been detected.
