Computerized glow curve deconvolution applied to ultralow dose LiF thermoluminescence dosimetry

Time and dose-rate dependence of TL and OSL due to competition between excitation and fading

“…Their graphs have shown that at very high doses, the doseedependence curves tend to level off following a range of significant decrease in the TL intensity. Similar non-monotonic results have been reported by Horowitz et al (1986). The effect of non-monotonic dose dependence has also been seen in quartz, the main material used for archaeological and geological dating.…”

The deconvolution of thermoluminescence glow-curves using general expressions derived from the one trap-one recombination (OTOR) level model

“…It is obvious that this glow-curve suffers from some outlier points which make the deconvolution process a difficult task. The outliers are conceived as discontinuous points on the glow-curve and may arise not only from statistically improbable events but also from apparatus malfunction (Horowitz et al, 1986). Also, the different algorithms of subtracting the background may affect the kinetics parameter values obtained from the CGCD (Bos et al, 1994).…”

The Effect of Experimental Cycles on the Traps Depths of Dosimetric Traps of Natural Calcite Minerals

“…Computer glow curve deconvulation (CGCD) or computerised curve deconvolution (CCD) is a analysis program to get kinetic parameters of traps. The computerised curve deconvolution (CCD) analysis of thermoluminescence (TL) glow curves and optically stimulated luminescence (OSL) decay curves into their individual glow peaks and components respectively have been recognised over the last 30 years to be of major importance [6,[8][9][10][11][12]. The main aim in the program that superimpose experimental TL glow curve and simulated TL glow curve on each other.…”
