Thermoluminescence may be defined as the emission of light from solid state materials caused by thermal recombination of previously trapped electrons and holes. In solids, electrons and holes formed by exposure to light or radiation may become separated and trapped in energy wells at defect or impurity sites such that the probability …

thermoluminescence. thermoluminescence A phenomenon whereby certain minerals, when slowly heated to temperatures below their level of incandescence, emit light. Some minerals will do this only when in contact with oxygen (or air) and in this case it is known as oxyluminescence. The light energy emitted is measured using a …
Luminescence dosimetry may refer to thermoluminescence (TL), optically stimulated luminescence (OSL), or other types of photon emission processes including radiophotoluminescence, radioluminescence, and scintillation. This task group focuses on the passive use (i.e., readout of the phosphor subsequent to irradiation) of …

Introduction. Thermoluminescence (TL) is a luminescence phenomenon of an insulator or semiconductor which can be observed when the solid is thermally stimulated. TL should not be confused with the light spontaneously emitted from a substance when it is heated to incandescence.
1.3 Applications of Thermoluminescence in Archaeology. a) Dating. The most common and important application of thermoluminescence in Archaeology is dating of archaeological objects, mainly ceramics, such as pottery, bricks or terracotta. The rapid heating of such objects up to 500°C results in the weak, but measurable emission of …
Abstract. The geopolymers are large inorganic molecules, synthesized by an activated polycondensation reaction, either in a highly alkaline medium or in an acid medium, from substances rich in silicon (Si) and aluminum (Al). They have excellent mechanical and physical properties; high compressive strength, thermal stability, low …

A major disadvantage of dose reconstruction by means of thermoluminescence (TL) is the fact that during readout of any TL material exposed to ionizing radiation (i.e., during measuring the glow curve), the radiation-induced signal gets lost. Application of the photo-transferred thermoluminescence phenomenon (PTTL) …

Abstract. Luminescence of minerals on heating (thermoluminescence), known since the 17th century, has comparatively recently become a method of investigation, after the nature of this phenomenon had been understood (F.Urbach, 1930) as an undulated kindling and waning of the glow brightness under a uniform heating due to electrons escaping from ...
Thermoluminescence (TL) in meteoritic minerals is a consequence of the filling of electron traps when electrons are excited into the conduction band by ionizing radiation and some become trapped in metastable energy states. The concentration of trapped electrons is a function of the ionization rate, the nature of the minerals involved, and ...
