Al2O3:C Reader Cross-Talk Analysis

Description

The function provides the analysis of cross-talk measurements on a FI lexsyg SMART reader using Al2O3:C chips.

Usage

analyse_Al2O3C_CrossTalk(
  object,
  signal_integral = NULL,
  integral_input = c("channel", "measurement"),
  dose_points = c(0, 4),
  recordType = "OSL (UVVIS)",
  irradiation_time_correction = NULL,
  method_control = NULL,
  plot = TRUE,
  ...
)

Arguments

object	RLum.Analysis or list (required): measurement input
signal_integral	numeric (optional): signal integral, used for the signal and the background. If nothing is provided, the full range is used.
integral_input	character (with default): input type for signal_integral, one of "channel" (default) or "measurement". If set to "measurement", the best matching channels corresponding to the given time range (in seconds) are selected.
dose_points	numeric (with default): vector with dose points, if dose points are repeated, only the general pattern needs to be provided. Default values follow the suggestions made by Kreutzer et al., 2018.
recordType	character (with default): input curve selection, which is passed to get_RLum. To deactivate the automatic selection set the argument to NULL.
irradiation_time_correction	numeric or RLum.Results (optional): information on the used irradiation time correction obtained by another experiment.
method_control	list (optional): optional parameters to control the calculation. See details for further explanations.
plot	logical (with default): enable/disable the plot output.
...	further arguments and graphical parameters to control the plot output. Supported are: main, mtext, and pt.cex (point size).

Value

Function returns results numerically and graphically:
