Abstract:A three-stage thermal stimulation of thermoluminescence is studied. Three assumed conditions are applied to this model and the analytical expressions are compared with the numerical results. For condition 1: effective activation energy, Eeff ≈ E1 + E2 + E3, effective frequency factor, seff ≈ s2s3/p2 and effective retrapping probability coefficient, An,eff ≈ An. The expected Eeff is obtained. For condition 2: Eeff ≈ E1 + E2, seff ≈ (s1s2/p1)exp(E3/kT) and An,eff ≈ (p2/s3)exp(E3/kT)An. In this case, Eeff reduces… Show more
