Abstract
Single F 2 color centers in a LiF crystal are studied by means of fluorescence microscopy with analysis and statistical processing of the time trajectories of fluorescence intensity. It is shown that a color center subjected to photoirradiation can enter a triplet state with a subsequent transition to a mobile state in which the center is reoriented.
