Journal ArticleDOI
Thermoluminescence spectra of igneous quartz and hydrothermal vein quartz
TL;DR: In this paper, a new spectrometer featuring dual imaging photon detectors that separately and simultaneously detect uv-blue (200-450 nm) and blue to near infrared (400-800 nm) emission bands for four types of geological quartz was presented.
Journal ArticleDOI
Thermal treatments and emission spectra of TL from quartz
TL;DR: The intrinsic defect structure of quartz is sensitive to heat treatments, and this is reflected in changes in TL sensitivity and also the relative intensity of the component glow peaks as mentioned in this paper, and it is also known that even for the same crystal, there can be changes in the luminescence spectra.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mn2+ transitions in the TL emission spectra of calcite
TL;DR: In this article, it is shown that the glow peaks of calcite, Iceland Spar and synthetic CaCO3 are consistent with a more complex set of transitions, including those from upper levels down to other excited states.
Journal ArticleDOI
Thermoluminescence spectra of doped Bi4Ge3O12
TL;DR: In this paper, a model for charge traps is proposed and activation energies for the charge traps are given, which is interpreted as resulting from direct charge transfer from intrinsic defect traps to rare earth recombination centres.
Journal ArticleDOI
Thermoluminescence spectra of amethyst
TL;DR: In this article, the authors compared thermoluminescence and cathodolumininescence data from natural and synthetic amethyst and synthetic quartz samples and found that the near infrared emission at 740-750 nm appears to be due to Fe ion impurity.
