Poolton, N.R.J. (author), Kars, R.H. (author)Luminescence emission from naturally occurring feldspars has been extensively studied and reported for more than 30 years, not least because of its use in optically based radiation dosimetry. However, knowledge of the actual defects participating in the luminescence remains only partial, as are the recombination pathways that lead to the...article 2022

Kars, R.H. (author), Busschers, F.S. (author), Wallinga, J. (author)Recent developments have opened up the possibilities of using potassium feldspar for dating Pleistocene sediments; a stable (less-fading) part of the infrared stimulated luminescence (IRSL) signal can be selected by largely depleting the unstable part of the IR signal, using a combination of thermal and IR stimulation: post IR-IRSL dating (pIR...article 2012

Wallinga, J. (author), Bos, A.J.J. (author), Dorenbos, P. (author), Murray, A.S. (author), Schokker, J. (author), TNO Bouw en Ondergrond (author)Infrared-stimulated luminescence (IRSL) dating of feldspars has the potential to date deposits beyond the age range of quartz optical (OSL) dating. Successful application of feldspar IRSL dating is, however, often precluded due to anomalous-fading, the tunnelling of electrons from one defect site to another. In this paper we test procedures...article 2007

TNO Bouw en Ondergrond (author), Wallinga, J. (author), Davids, F. (author), Dijkmans, J.W.A. (author)Over the last decades luminescence dating techniques have been developed that allow earth scientists to determine the time of deposition of sediments. In this contribution we revity: 1) the development of the methodology, 2) tests of the reliability of luminescence dating on Netherlands' sediments; and 3) geological applications of the method in...article 2007
