Abstract

This chapter describes the relevant physical processes of luminescence, including excitation, emission, oxygen quenching, and thermal quenching. The kinetic models for conventional and porous PSPs are discussed, while the model for TSP is considered a reduced case. These models provide the physical foundations for the design and characterization of PSP and TSP, measurement uncertainty analysis, and data processing.
