Fig. 5: Oscillatory phenomenon of light-induced ion redistribution.

a PL mapping after local illumination and at selected recovery times for 670 nm (top row) and 790 nm (bottom row). The scale bar is 40 μm. b, c Time-dependent PL intensity taken at the ring in (a) for 670 and 790 nm, respectively. Insets show a zoom-in view of the time range before 10 h
