Abstract


The work in this paper deals with studies on the nonlinear dose response of the OTOR-model glow peaks when the frequency factor S is temperature dependent parameter. The present work takes into account the possibility of competition between trap filling and trap emptying during irradiation, the possibility of trap emptying during storage period after the end of irradiation and the trap emptying during thermal excitation, respectively of the OTOR-model glow peaks. It is found that the amount of the nonlinearity effect depends on the relative magnitudes of the trapping parameters involved, the time of irradiating the samples, the storage time after the end of irradiation, the total dose imparted, the time of imparting these doses and on the different values of the parameter a.
