The thermoluminescence (TL) after excitation by UV or X-rays radiation of alumina-zirconia powders is investigated. The composites present five of the characteristic peaks of zirconia at −170, −145, −90, 0 and 95 °C. After a thermal treatment of mixed oxides, a new peak is observed at −35 °C in TL. This peak reveals the presence of stabilized...

The thermoluminescence (TL) after excitation by UV or X-rays radiation of doped a-alumina powders is investigated. In the case of zirconia, the alumina-zirconia composites present five of the characteristic peaks of zirconia at -170, -145, -90, 0 and 95°C. After a thermal treatment of mixed oxides, a new peak is observed at -35°C in TL. This...
