The Luminescence Database is compiled from published literature on luminescence spectroscopy, and all searches of the database return the relevant publication reference (see the 'Reference' column in the 'expanded' view). The Luminescence Database was compiled by Colin MacRae and Nick Wilson (CSIRO Mineral Resources), and Jackson Smith (Applied Physics, RMIT University). The on-line Luminescence Database website was developed by Maria-Jose Montoya (Applied Physics, RMIT University) and Aaron Torpy (CSIRO Mineral Resources). The off-line Luminescence Database software in OpticalFit was developed by Aaron Torpy.

The following researchers have contributed reference spectra for the database, or specimens for cathodoluminescence analysis, and their contributions are most gratefully appreciated [names are listed in alphabetical order.]

• Gerard Bamarin (fluomin.org) – 26 luminescent mineral specimens (spectra measured by CSIRO)
• Toon Coenen (Delmic B.V) – 3 reference spectra
• Michael Gaft (Ariel University) – 163 reference spectra, and over 500 line attributions.
• Jens Götze (TU Freiberg) – 62 reference spectra
• John Hanchar (Memorial University of Newfoundland) – zircon spectra with wide range of dopants
• Christoph Lenz (University of Vienna) – rare-earth doped xenotime spectra
