Description

A Z-centre model was proposed by Nink and Kos (Phys. Status Solidi a; 35:121 (1976) and Nucl. Instrum. Methods; 175:16 (1980)) to explain the thermoluminescent response of LiF. That model has been criticised by several authors. A modified version of the Z-centre model has since been proposed. This letter points out that even the modified version does not stand scrutiny.
