Luminescence and scintillation dynamics can be extensively influenced by the energy transfer processes, which is demonstrated at three selected scintillator materials: PbWO4, Ce‐doped aluminium garnets and PrF3:Ce single crystals. Charge carrier retrapping processes can delay radiative recombination at the luminescence centers in an extended time scale, which makes a substantial part of generated scintillation light technically unexploitable. Correlated measurements based on time‐resolved emission spectroscopy and thermoluminescence are of great help to evaluate these phenomena and to understand their microscopic origin.
