Abstract:Luminescence is a highly sensitive technique to monitor the presence of impurities, imperfections and lattice distortions. To fully exploit it requires sensitive detection systems with high resolution spectral data and temperature control. This review notes both how detector technology has advanced, and mentions simple routes to generate more efficient use of existing photomultipliers. Modern detectors enable wavelength multiplexed spectrometer systems, which are prerequisites for both detailed thermoluminesce… Show more
