Abstract:

The results of transmission electron microscopy and thermoluminescence (TL) studies in silica samples containing Fe and Cu nanosized particles show an important enhancement of their TL response when compared with known reports for pure silica samples. The effect of surface electronic states in the nanoparticles, interacting with the matrix, may be responsible for this new size-dependent effect.
