“…Among all the samples, the TL intensity is maximum for sample SPR5 (T m ¼ 382 K). As figured out from two reviews on the AES phosphors [8,9], the TL peaks observed by various workers for SrS host doped with different activators mostly fall in the range 325-375 K where the trapping states are primarily assigned to natural defects of the host. Owing to its maximum TL intensity, this sample SPR5 alone is chosen for further analysis concerning the determination of related kinetic parameters.…”
