•A new detection and stimulation head for the Risø TL/OSL reader is described.•An example of the use of the filter changer is presented.•The power and spatial uniformity of blue, green and IR stimulation are characterised.•The potential of an EMCCD camera detector is described.
A new automated Detection And Stimulation Head (DASH) has been developed for the Risø TL/OSL luminescence reader to provide easy access to new technologies, new signals and new measurement methods. The automated DASH includes a filter changer and a detector changer that makes it possible to change stimulation filters (4 × 4 filter combinations possible) and detectors (3 detectors possible) as part of a measurements sequence. The new automated DASH with dedicated driver electronics does not affect the use of other attachments, and can be retrospectively fitted to existing Risø TL/OSL readers.
