The point radiation defects in Li₆YB₃O₉:Eu³⁺ single crystals have been studied. The irradiation of Li₆YB₃O₉:Eu³⁺ single crystals with beta particles has been found to cause a valence state change (Eu³⁺ -> Eu²⁺) in some fraction of europium ions being detected by decrease of Eu³⁺ photoluminescence...
