Abstract
To cater to the requirements of integrated temperature sensing for diverse applications in optoelectronics and biomedicine, a dual-mode and dual-channel versatile thermometry strategy was proposed by utilizing Pr3+-activated luminescence. Stemming from population reallocation via the intervalence charge transfer state, different thermal responds of two sets of emissions originating from 3P0 and 1D2 were observed in the important photoelectric material LiTaO3. The fluorescence intensity ratio modes R616/510 and R713/764 offered visible and near-infrared spectral channels, respectively, for various sensing scenarios. The relatively sensitivities (SR) were further improved with maximum values of 0.70 %K–1 and 0.41%K–1, respectively, via optimizing the choice of integrated spectral ranges. Moreover, the complementary lifetime mode excelled at higher temperatures with a maximum SR of 0.42% K–1. Therefore, Pr3+-activated LiTaO3 enabled high-performance thermometry in wide temperature and spectral ranges, providing the future possibility of its integration within a variety of optoelectronic and biomedical devices.
