The '110oC' TL peak in synthetic quartz

  • 1. Durham Univ. (United Kingdom)

Description

The thermoluminescence (TL) of synthetic quartz has been investigated in the temperature region 275-475 K. These measurements have revealed a more complicated structure of the 110oC TL peak and thermal activation energies and frequency factors have been estimated for a number of peaks within the glow curve. The results obtained after annealing samples in different atmospheres indicate that oxygen-related defects play an important role in the luminescence process, involving both the charge traps and recombination centres.
