The role that oxygen vacancies can play in the emission of quartz ultraviolet luminescence is
investigated. Within a defect pair model approach we highlight the significance of …

The effect of exposure of quartz samples to blue (470±30 nm) and UV (365±10 nm) light has
been studied. Thermoluminescence, TL, Electron Paramagnetic Resonance, EPR, and …

This study examines the thermoluminescent emission of quartz whose existence can be
registered with 1 mGy test-doses. Samples originated from three crystals were sensitized …

The red thermoluminescence (RTL) emission of quartz is associated with advantageous
features such as high saturation dose and good reproducibility. Previous studies, however …

Numerous naturally occurring minerals serve as thermoluminescent dosimeter (TLD)
materials. The thermoluminescence (TL) characteristics of these minerals are influenced by …

Thermoluminescence (TL) emission of tridymite, a quartz-like mineral, could be used for a
variety purposes, including basic research, ceramic technology, traditional/medical industry …

This study aims to investigate the optically stimulated luminescence of quartz grains
exhibiting an intense thermoluminescent signal between 250 and 350° C after sensitization …

Tridymite exhibits a complex 400 nm-induced thermoluminescence spectra consisting of five
groups of components at (i) 90 and 130° C (due mainly to oxygen vacancies, substitution …

O quartzo natural apresenta diversos tipos de impurezas e centros de defeitos na sua
estrutura cristalina; parte deles responsáveis pelo armadilhamento de carga e …
