To obtain best values of trap parameters like activation energy (E), frequency factor (s), order of kinetics (b), GCD Analyzer has the capability of analyzing glow curve using selectable individual peak of various physical kinetic models i.e. This tool has a unique feature of TL glow curve analysis by combining discrete and continuous energy distributions for crystalline, amorphous, and mixed materials. It is capable of deconvolution of glow curves having discrete or continuous trap distribution and can be used for routine as well as emergency radiation dosimetric analysis.
In this study an open-source tool GCD Analyzer, based on Microsoft® Excel, for Computerized Glow Curve Deconvolution analysis (CGCD) of thermoluminescence (TL) glow peak has been developed using a more accurate rational approximation.
