X‐Ray excited luminescence (radioluminescence, RL) spectra from nominally pure crystalline zinc oxide (ZnO) are reported. The temperature range is from 20 to 673 K. Significant changes of emission band energies and intensities are observed across the temperature range. Photon energies of emission ba...
