Abstract

In the article effect of temperature on luminescent properties of antimony - silicate glass co - doped with 1.0mol%Yb³⁺/1mol%0.2Tm³⁺ under 976 nm was investigated. As a result of optical excitation with radiation with the wavelength of 976 nm three luminescence bands were obtained: 477 nm for ¹G₄→³H₆ quantum transition, 650 nm for ₁G₄→³F₄ and 698 nm for ³F_2,3→3H6 in thulium ions, formed by the efficient Yb³⁺ → Tm³⁺ energy transfer. It has been found that the increase in temperature of a glass leads to higher probability of phonon transitions from the ¹G₄ to the ³F_2,3 level leading to quenching of luminescence band with the wavelength within the band of 650 nm. The maximum sensitivity to temperature change is 0.02139 [K^-1] at 250°C. The nature of a change over a range of studied temperature from 5 to 250°C is linear. The results of the research indicate that the fabricated glass can be used to construct luminescence temperature sensors.
