Devi et al. (2022) suggested that post-violet infrared stimulated luminescence (pVIRSL) of K-feldspars has a near zero athermal fading rate. This study investigates the mechanism and suitability of the pVIRSL signal for dating applications. The results show that pVIRSL is a recuperated signal resulting from the eviction and recapture of charges in deep traps by violet stimulation and subsequent infrared stimulation. The pVIR-SAR protocol worked well for dating seven K-feldspar samples from various depositional environments.
Devi et al. (2022) suggested that post-violet infrared stimulated luminescence (pVIRSL; IRSL at 100 degrees C after a violet bleach at 50 degrees C) of K-feldspars, generally has a near zero athermal fading rate. This study explores the mechanism and suitability of the pVIRSL signal for dating applications. The results suggest that pVIRSL is a recuperated signal, arising from the eviction of charges in deep traps by violet stimulation followed by their recapture to the IR traps. A post-violet IR single aliquot regenerative dose (pVIR-SAR) protocol worked well for seven K-feldspar samples from varied depositional environments with ages ranging from 6 to 286 ka. The pVIRSL paleodoses of most samples, accorded with paleodoses computed using the published ages and their environmental dose rates.
