Ws. Singh et al., Activation energies and temperature dependent frequency factors in thermoluminescence recorded with hyperbolic heating scheme, PHYS ST S-A, 179(1), 2000, pp. 265-273
A method has been developed for the evaluation of activation energy of ther
moluminescence peak recorded with hyperbolic heating scheme by taking into
account temperature dependent frequency factor. We have arrived at. a numbe
r of expressions of activation energy involving the peak temperature and/or
temperatures corresponding to the two points of inflection of the peak. It
has been observed that the temperature dependence of frequency factor migh
t lead to an error of the order of 10% in the determination of activation e
nergy.
