摘要
Herein,we reported novel Y_(4)GeO_(8):Er^(3+),Yb^(3+)phosphors elaborated via conventional solid-state reaction.and we further explored their properties as optical thermometer by using fluorescence intensity ratio(FIR)method complemented by detailed analysis on crystal structure,up-conversion luminescence and energy transfer from Yb^(3+)to Er^(3+).Upon 980 nm laser excitation,Y_(4)GeO_(8):Er^(3+),Yb^(3+)phosphors present525,547 and 659 nm emission bands assigned to the characteristic transitions of Er^(3+).Furthermore,Y_(4)GeO_(8):Er^(3+),Yb^(3+)samples show outstanding temperature sensing performances.To be specific,the minimal temperature resolution is 0.03 K(303 K),and the relative sensitivity of FIR can be up to 1.152%/K(303 K).Hence,Y_(4)GeO_(8):Er^(3+),Yb^(3+)phosphors can be possible candidates for thermometry devices.
