Abstract
Cr-doped phosphor crystals have been grown and characterized for applications in fiber-optic thermometers based on the temperature dependence of the photoluminescence (PL) lifetime. PL peaking at is observed from the crystals following an excitation by a light-emitting diode at Long PL lifetime is observed from Cr-doped at room temperature as compared with those of ruby and spinel The temperature coefficient (−0.075 ms/K) of Cr-doped is also larger than those of ruby (−0.010 ms/K) or spinel (−0.037 ms/K). is considered to be a sensitive sensor head material for fiber-optics thermometers.
