Williams, O.M.Spooner, N.A.2018-12-042018-12-042018Radiation Measurements, 2018; 108:41-441350-4487http://hdl.handle.net/2440/116571The well-known 160 °C and 220 °C intermediate temperature bands in quartz thermoluminescence are attributed to the same defect reaction pair proposed previously to explain the 110 °C predose band. In particular, the trend towards longer spectral wavelengths as the glow proceeds across the 110 °C, 160 °C and 220 °C bands is shown to be consistent with the known energy levels of the [AlO₄ ⁻/h⁺]⁰ substitutional defect.en© 2017 Elsevier Ltd.
