Unlocking the Potential of Ni2+ and Ni2+-Cr3+ Synergy for Bifunctional Pressure and Temperature Optical Sensing

M. Szymczak, L. Marciniak

Reliable simultaneous optical sensing of pressure and temperature under extreme and dynamically fluctuating conditions remains a major challenge due to intrinsic cross-sensitivity…

Constructing a bifunctional platform based on Mn2+-doped Mg2Y8(SiO4)6O2 phosphors for multi-parameter optical thermometry and manometry

Zhiyu Pei, Shuailing Ma, Maja Szymczak +4

Series of the Mn2+-doped Mg2Y8(SiO4)6O2 phosphors were synthesized. Upon excitation at 408 nm, these phosphors exhibited intense orange emission originating from Mn2+, with concent…

From the up-converting multimodal luminescent thermometer to ratiometric visual power density meter based on Er3+,Yb3+ emission

Anam Javaid, Maja Szymczak, Lukasz Marciniak

This study demonstrates that thermally induced variations in the spectroscopic properties of Na3Sc2(PO4)3:Er3+, Yb3+ can be effectively harnessed for multimodal remote temperature…
