  • Abstract
    Experimental and theoretical evaluations of cross sections for hot carrier collisional excitation of manganese and rare-earth dopants in thin-film electroluminescent devices are reported. The hot carriers are identified experimentally as electrons. Energies of the hot electrons are estimated, and possibilities for improvements in efficiency are discussed.
