The absorption and photoconductivity spectra of ZnSe:Co in the spectral region of the 4 A 2 ( 4 F) → → 4 T 1 ( 4 F) and 4 A 2 ( 4 F) → 4 T 1 ( 4 P) crystal field transitions within the 3d 7 shell of the Co 2+ ion are presented. The structure of the photocurrent observed here is associated with the degeneracy of the 4 T 1( 4 P) and 4 T 1 ( 4 F) excited states of the Co 2+ ion with the conduction band of ZnSe. The autoionization times of Co 2+ ion via those states to the conduction band are estimated to lie within the range of 10 −9 to 10 −4 s.
