Facets of Luminescence for Dating
Spectroscopy Letters, 2012The aim of this article is to introduce luminescence dating and relate it to luminescence and Raman spectroscopy of minerals. The physical bases of luminescence signals used in dating and their relationships to other radiation-induced luminescence and Raman signals are briefly reviewed.

A portable luminescence dating instrument
Nuclear Instruments and Methods in Physics Research Section B: Beam Interactions with Materials and Atoms, 2011Abstract We describe a portable luminescence reader suitable for use in remote localities in the field. The instrument weighs about 8 kg and is based around a 30 mm bialkali photomultiplier detecting signals through a glass filter centered on 340 nm. Stimulation is by 470 nm blue LEDs (24 W in total) operating in both continuous wave and pulsed mode;

Use of luminescence dating in archaeology
Measurement Science and Technology, 2003With improvements in methodology and instrumentation, luminescence dating is becoming a much more useful chronometric tool in archaeology. Procedures for dating ceramics are relatively routine and their accuracy has been demonstrated in a number of studies.

Chapter Five: Luminescence Dating
2008Publisher Summary This chapter discusses sampling sites and laboratory procedures, including equivalent-dose determination and dose-rate determination. A detailed description of the sampling sites is necessary for various reasons. First, it helps to better understand the dating results. Second, drilling and coring provide insights that are useful for

Dating Quaternary events by luminescence
1988Luminescence techniques can provide ages for deposits undatable by routine geochronometric techniques (e.g., 14C, K-Ar, fission track). Two classes of events can be dated by luminescence methods: (I) growth of a mineral or its last cooling, and (II) the last exposure to sunlight. Within the past few years, significant advances in procedures, technology,
