The trap bag concept of afterglow luminescence

Abstract This article explains the behavior of afterglow luminescence using the trap bag concept, in which a constant phosphor dose contains a presumed bag with the ability to capture or release electrons through its opening. Luminescence is emitted as the bag releases the captured electrons. The el...
