Abstract
We describe an analysis of phototransferred thermoluminescence (PTTL) using simple energy band models and considering the dynamics of charge transfer between localized trapping states during irradiation, illumi nation and heating. The various behaviours which are possible are high lighted and described. Particular attention is focused upon the depend ences of the PTTL signal upon the illumination time and upon the wavel ength of excitation. Some comparisons with experimental PTTL signals f rom crystalline quartz are discussed.
