Abstract

The influence of Li+/Zn2+ heterovalent doping on the structural change and upconversion luminescence properties of Lu2W2.5Mo0.5O12:Er3+/Yb3+ phosphors was investigated in details. The gradual substitution of Li+/Zn2+ ions for Lu3+ ions result in the evolution from orthorhombic Lu2W2.5Mo0.5O12 to monoclinic (LiZn)2W2.5Mo0.5O12, which bring the structural distortion, the reduction of local symmetry and the crystallite growth. The green upconversion intensity of Er3+ ions at 536 nm and 550 nm were enhanced significantly by a factor of 8000 and 4000. The temperature sensing characteristics of a single (LiZn)2W2.5Mo0.5O12:Er3+/Yb3+ particle in all-fiber structure was explored and the unusual thermally-enhanced upconversion luminescence was observed, which is beneficial for achieving high-precision temperature measurement based on the fluorescence intensity ratio technology. The absolute temperature sensitivity reached a maximum of 0.0095 K−1 at 423 K and the temperature deviation was less than 0.6 K. The as-built all-fiber temperature sensor was successfully applied in the on-line monitoring of CPU temperature.
