title: The deconvolution of thermoluminescence glow-curves using general expressions derived from the one trap-one recombination (OTOR) level model.
abstract: The new developed thermoluminescence (TL) glow-peak expressions derived from the one trap-one recombination (OTOR) level model were used to analyze the TL glow-curves recorded with linear and exponential heating function profiles under various experimental conditions. The results showed that these expressions can, accurately, analyze the TL glow-curves even with the overlapped glow-peaks. Low values of R=An/Amwere reported for glow-peaks in different TL materials. A glow-peak with the possibility of An>Amwas also pointed out.
