Phenomenological Study of Light-Induced Effects in Alpha-Al203:C

Abstract
A computerised glow curve deconvolution (CGCD) analysis was applied to the main dosimetric peak of a-Al2O3:C in order to study the effects of light on the glow curve shape. It was shown that both the light-induced signal and the light-induced fading effects tend to shift the main dosimetric peak to higher temperatures and at the same time change its shape. Furthermore, it was confirmed that the magnitude of the light-induced signal depends on radiation history and, by increasing the duration of light exposure, the magnitude of the light-induced signal reaches a plateau, thereby implying the saturation of the phototransfer process.
