Oscillatory Regularity in the Energy Spectrum of Traps in Ordered Media. Ii. Discussion of the Model (Critical Review and Theoretical Perspective)

This review describes the study of several materials of different types using the improved fractional thermoluminescence method.It is shown that the activation energies of traps exhibit oscillatory regularities, E = ћωTL(n+1/2), in which most values of ωTL coincide with the frequencies of the Raman spectrum lines.Part I of the review describes the applied thermoluminescence (TL) methods and presents experimental results.We formulated the polaron trap model.Part II describes the TL mechanisms corresponding to the proposed model in different material types studied.The reasons for activation energies that are integer or half-integer multiples of ћωTL are discussed.The concept of the frequency factor was clarified, and its influence on TL processes was described.
