The ferromagnetic ordering is accompanied by a negative lattice expansion. Large magnetic entropy changes in a wide temperature range from ～230 K to ～320 K are achieved. Raising Co content increases the Curie temperature but weakens the magnetovolume effect, thereby causing a decrease in magnetic entropy change. These materials exhibit a metallic character below Tc, whereas the electrical resistance decreases abruptly and then recovers the metal-like behaviour above Tc. Application of a magnetic field retains the transitions via increasing the ferromagnetic ordering temperature. An isothermal increase in magnetic field leads to an increase in electrical resistance at temperatures near but above Tc, which is a consequence of the field-induced metamagnetic transition from a paramagnetic state to a ferromagnetic state.展开更多

Based on different responses of two emissions to temperature, the fluorescence intensity ratio(FIR) technique can be used to estimate the sensitivities for assessing the optical thermometry performances. In this study, we introduce different doping concentrations of Eu^(3+) ions into negative thermal expansion material Sc2W3O12to increase the thermal-enhanced luminescence from 373 K to 548 K, and investigate the temperature sensing properties in detail. All samples can exhibit their good luminescence behaviors thermally enhanced.The emission intensity of Sc2W3O12:6-mol% Eu3+phosphor reaches 147.8% of initial intensity at 473 K. As the Eu3+doping concentration increases, the resistance of the sample to thermal quenching decreases. The FIR technique based on each of the transitions 5D→7F_(1)(592 nm) and 5D→7F_(2)(613 nm) of Eu3+ions demonstrates a maximum relative temperature sensitivity of 3.063% K-1at 298 K for Sc_(2)W_(3)O_(12):6-mol% Eu3+phosphor. The sensitivity of sample decreases with the increase of Eu3+concentration. Benefiting from the thermal-enhanced luminescence performance and good temperature sensing properties, the Sc_(2)W_(3)O_(12):Eu^(3+)phosphors can be used as optical thermometers.展开更多
