We discuss the expected dependence of the maximum signal of a number of luminescence phenomena, used in dosimetry and archaeological and geological dating, on the initial occupancy of the relevant traps, n0, within the OTOR (also called General One Trap (GOT)) model. This, in turn, has important bearing on the dose dependence of these phenomena. We discuss the dependence of the linearly-modulated optically-stimulated-luminescence (LM-OSL) as well as the non-linear optical stimulation (NL-OSL) on the initial concentration n0 of trapped carriers. We also consider the behavior of CW-OSL and phosphorescence in a transformed form, as well as TL measured under hyperbolic and linear heating rates. Using an appropriate presentation, the maximum of the signal is seen to depend nearly linearly on n0, which in many cases means nearly linear dependence on the dose, a property important for dosimetry and dating.
