Abstract

Luminescence intensity ratio (LIR) thermometry is of great interest, because of its wide applications of noninvasive temperature sensing. Here, a LIR thermometry based on combined ground and excited states absorptions is developed using CaWO4:Tb3+. The ratio of single luminescence (5D4-7F5) intensities under 379 and 413 nm excitations with opposite temperature dependences, attributed to the thermal coupling of ground state 7F6 and excited state 7F5, is used to measure temperature. This LIR method achieves a high relative sensitivity of 2.8% K-1, and can avoid complex spectral splitting by collecting all down-shifting luminescence bands, being a promising accurate luminescence thermometry.
