The 9 pages that link to Color center, each with the reason it gives.

• Point defectBroader topic: Certain vacancies trap electrons or holes, giving crystals distinctive optical absorption.

• Calcium fluorideRelated: Radiation-induced defects can change the color and transmission of CaF₂.

• SapphireRelated: Impurities and defects selectively absorb light, producing sapphire’s visible hues.

• Vacancy defectBroader topic: Some vacancy-related defects trap electrons and produce characteristic optical absorption.

• LazuriteNarrower topic: Lazurite’s color is linked to sulfur-based electronic centers within its crystal.

• SodaliteRelated: Color centers contribute to the blue coloration of many sodalite specimens.

• Caesium iodideRelated: Radiation and impurities can create absorbing defects that tint CsI and alter its light output.

• ElectrideCompared with: Color centers also trap electrons in solids, but they arise from defects rather than regular electride sites.

• AntozoniteRelated: Radiation-induced defects contribute to the dark coloration of antozonite.
