Caractérisation des solides par thermoluminescence.

JCAT'97 Conference on Calorimetry and Thermal Analysis No28, Dunquerke, FRANCE (27/05/1997)International audienceThe thermoluminescence method (TL), or the thermostimulated luminescence is one of the techniques which correlate thermal and optical methods and usually used to characterize the defects occuring in insulating or semiconductors materials. After a brief description of the TL phenomenon based on the example of alpha alumina, we present some applications of thermoluminescence
