33. The true crystal size is different from the measured bump height because the AgCl particles stick out of the KCl matrix with different parts of their volume. Further, the AFM measurements were performed at room temperature, in normal atmosphere and under visible light, which might also have somewhat affected the measured heights. The obtained heights can however be considered to be indicative for the NC sizes.
34. This was examined with the same ODMR setup. Data not shown.
