Crushing effects on TL and OSL on quartz: relevance to fault dating
Abstract
The effect of crushing on the TL and OSL signals in quartz was investigated to examine the feasibility of using OSL and TL for dating of faulted rocks. 275°C TL signals were not reduced by crushing by hand (mortar and pestle), in a pellet die press, or using an automatic mortar and pestle, but the sensitivity of the 100°C TL signal to a test dose decreased in crushed samples. Green light-stimulated OSL signal intensities were not decreased …
