The experiment of the emission and excitation optical spectrum, decay curve of fluorescence and residuals for several sensitive materials confirms the match of Y2O2S:Eu using the light source and the feasibility of the system.

Benefiting from the diverse thermal dependent emission behaviors of Eu^2+ and Eu^3+, Ca2 Al2 Si1-xO7:Eu thermometer exhibits excellent temperature sensing performances with the maximum absolute and relative sensitivity being 0.024 K-1(at 303 K) and 2.46% K-1(at 443 K) and good signal discriminability. We propose that the emission quenching of Eu^2+ is ascribed to 5 d electrons depopulation through Eu^2+/Eu^3+ intervalence charge transfer state, while the quenching of Eu^3+ comes from multiphonon relaxation. Our work demonstrates the potential of Ca2 Al2 Si1-xO7:Eu for noncontact optical thermometry, and also highlights mixed-valence europium-containing compounds toward temperature sensing.展开更多
