For noncontact optical thermometry, in contrast with fluorescence intensity ratio (FIR) technology, excitation intensity ratio (EIR) technology has been seriously limited due to low sensitivity. Moreover, by exploring all possible temperature-dependent response, developing multimode optical thermometry is of great importance. In this work, a new Na2Y2TeB2O10 (NYTB):Tb3+ phosphor is obtained by a solid-state reaction. Based on FIR and EIR models of Tb3+, thermometric properties are studied thoroughly. Excellent relative and absolute sensitivity (SR and SA) are acquired due to the significant difference in emission/excitation lines in response to temperature. Meanwhile, Tb3+ content-dependent luminescence quenching mechanism is discussed. This study shows a feasible route for exploiting well-performing FIR-/EIR-based thermometric materials.

Exploring outstanding rare-earth activated inorganic phosphors with good thermostability has always been a research focus for high-power white light-emitting diodes (LEDs). In this study, we report a Sm3+-activated KNa4B2P3O13 (KNBP) powder phase. Its particle morphology, photoluminescence properties, concentration quenching mechanism, thermal quenching mechanism, and chromatic properties are demonstrated. Upon the near-ultraviolet (NUV) irradiation of 402 nm, the powder phase exhibits orange-red visible luminescence performance, originating from typical 4G5/26HJ/2 (J = 5, 7, 9) transitions of Sm3+. Importantly, the photoluminescence performance has good thermostability, low correlated color temperature (CCT), and high color purity (CP), indicating its promising application in the NUV-pumped warm white LEDs.
