Abstract

In thermoluminescence (TL), frequency factor might not always be temperature independent. In the present article we consider a method of two heating rates for evaluation of temperature exponent for the case of temperature dependent frequency factor in TL. The method has been analysed by applying it both to numerical and experimental TL peaks.
