This book is devoted to contemporary developments in phototransferred thermoluminescence and is suitable for researchers with an interest in the study of point-defects using stimulated luminescence methods. Topics presented include principles of thermal stimulation as they relate to phototransfer, experimental techniques for its measurement and analytical methods with emphasis on their application to time-response profiles. The measurement, analysis and mechanisms of phototransferred thermoluminescence in selected synthetic materials, natural ones and other materials of various research interest are presented in separate chapters. The final chapter also provides snapshots, for interested readers, on applications.
