Abstract

AbstractIn addressing the broad spectrum of applications for optical pressure sensors, their predominant drawback lies in their limited sensitivity to pressure fluctuations. To overcome these constraints, this study introduces a luminescent manometer harnessing the emission properties of Cr3+ ions in Li3Sc2(PO4)3, operational in three distinct reading modes: spectral shift, ratiometric, and lifetime‐based. Notably, the conducted research establishes this luminescent manometer as the most sensitive reported to date in both spectra shift (λ/dp = 23.9 nm/GPa) and lifetime‐based (SR = 93.56%/GPa) modes. A departure from conventional lifetime‐based luminescent pressure gauges, Li3Sc2(PO4)3:Cr3+ exhibits a prolongation of lifetime of the 4T2 state correlated with increasing pressure. The advantages extend beyond sensitivity, encompassing a three‐fold surge in emission intensity with pressure escalation from ambient to 3 GPa, coupled with minimal susceptibility to temperature‐induced fluctuations. Unquestionably, Li3Sc2(PO4)3:Cr3+ showcases remarkable manometric performance, validating its significant application potential in diverse scenarios within the realm of optical pressure sensors.
