Analysis of thermoluminescence kinetics of Mg2SiO4:Tb compounds employing an interactive model

The kinetics involved in the thermoluminescence (TL) of Mg2SiO4:Tb compounds has been investigated by unfolding glow curves employing both the General Order model and a model that takes into account interactions among traps. The dependence of the glow curve shape on dose is only correctly described if interaction among traps is included in the analysis.
