The Kissinger method is an overwhelmingly popular way of estimating the activation energy
of thermally stimulated processes studied by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) …

This paper reviews the physics of the phenomenon of thermoluminescence (TL) related to
dosimetric applications. Basic concepts are given using the one trap—one recombination …

McKeever gives us a comprehensive survey of thermoluminescence, an important, versatile,
and widely-used experimental technique. Bringing together previously isolated specialized …

In this book, the authors give an up-to-date account of thermoluminescence (TL) and other
thermally stimulated phenomena. Although most recent experimental results of TL in …

Discovering bismuth based smart materials that can respond to thermal, mechanical, and
wide range X-ray to infrared photon excitation remains a challenge. Such materials have …

Thermoluminescence glow-curve deconvolution (GCD) functions are proposed for first,
second and general orders of kinetics. The free parameters of the GCD functions are the …

Several methods are known for the evaluation of the main kinetic parameters related to a
thermoluminescence (TL) curve: namely, the activation energy, the pre-exponential factor …

There are three isoconversion methods in which relations at a given conversion and at the
maximum rate of conversion are used for estimating activation energy. It is shown that they …

Thermoluminescence (TL) and optically stimulated luminescence (OSL) are two of the most
important techniques used in radiation dosimetry. They have extensive practical applications …

In the nineteen years, 1965-1983, spanning the seven international conferences devoted to
luminescence dosimetry, the applications of thermoluminescence to ionizing radiation …
