Abstract
Multifunctional phosphors are extremely important in various applications, ranging from lighting to biomedical purposes. By employing thermoluminescence and luminescence thermometry-related techniques, the intricate processes governing the luminescent behavior of these phosphors can be better understood and controlled.Our study focuses on investigating the thermometric and thermoluminescent properties of Cr3+-activated aluminate family materials, with a specific focus on the effects of co-doping with various lanthanide ions. Through systematic analysis, we aim to understand the influence of lanthanide co-doping on the temperature response and thermoluminescent properties of the phosphors, which can offer valuable insights into using these materials in biological applications.The ultimate goal of our project is to incorporate these functionalized materials into cancer cells and understand their optical characteristics as theranostic materials, as shown in Figure 1. We will comprehensively examine physical processes related to thermo- and persistent luminescence and other thermally stimulated emissions in designed luminescent materials. Our goal is to gain valuable insights into optimizing their functionalities for future bio- and medical applications. The research finances by the Polish National Science Centre under OPUS grant #UMO2023/49/B/ST5/04265. Figure 1
