Thermoluminescence measurements have been carried out on Tl4InGa3S8 single crystals in the temperature range of 10-300 K at various heating rates. The observed thermoluminescence spectra have been analyzed applying many methods like curve fitting, initial rise, peak shape and heating rate methods. Thermal cleaning method has been performed on the observed thermoluminescence glow curve to separate the overlapped peaks. Three distinctive trapping centers with activation energies of 13, 44 and 208 meV have been revealed from the results of the analysis. Heating rate dependence and traps distribution investigations have been also undertaken on the most intensive peak. The thermoluminescence mechanisms in the observed traps have been attributed to first order kinetics (slow retrapping) on the strength of the consistency between theoretical assumptions for slow retrapping process and experimental outcomes.

The thermoluminescence (TL) of neodymium-doped gallium sulfide (GaS:Nd) single crystals was measured from 10 K to room temperature with various heating rates between 0.2 and 1.0 K/sec. Two peaks centered at 70.9 K and 116.0 K were observed when using a heating rate of 0.8 K/sec. Initial rise and curve fitting methods were used to obtain information on trap activation energies. Activation energies of 94 and 216 meV were found for two analyzable peaks. The heating rate dependencies of TL intensities revealed ...

As-grown Tl2In2S3Se layered single crystals were studied by thermally stimulated current measurements in the temperature range of 10-170K with different heating rates. Experimental data were analyzed according to various methods such as curve fitting and initial rise. The analysis of thermally stimulated current spectra registered at light excitation temperature T-0 = 10K revealed the trap level located at 30 meV. Attempt-to-escape frequency, concentration and capture cross section of the traps were determi...
