Electron injection was carried out in single crystals of KCl doped with KBr under
constant temperature for different fields. The injection current and optical density were
measured as functions of time. The process was stopped arbitrarily. An analytical theory
has been worked out and the growth coefficient (k) has been
found to behave in an anomalous way in describing the detrapping process.
