Abstract
The paper reports two quite general and user-friendly calculation codes (called TLD-MC and TLS-MC) for deconvolution and simulation, respectively, of thermoluminescence (TL) glow curves, which have been implemented using the well-known engineering computing software PTC Mathcad. An advantage of this commercial software is the flexibility and productivity in setting up tailored computations due to a natural math notation, an interactive calculation environment and the availability of advanced numerical methods. TLD-MC includes the majority of popular models used for TL glow-curve deconvolution (the user can easily implement additional models if necessary). The least-squares (Levenberg-Marquardt) optimisation of various analytical and even some non-analytical models is reasonably fast and the obtained figure-of-merit values are generally excellent. TLS-MC implements numerical solution of the original set of differential equations describing charge carrier dynamics involving arbitrary number of interactive electron and hole traps.
