Critical evaluation of the thermometric performance of ratiometric luminescence thermometers based on Ba₃(VO₄)₂:Mn⁵⁺,Nd³⁺ for deep-tissue thermal imaging

Abstract

Near-infrared (NIR) luminescence thermometry has been brought to the fore as a reliable approach for remote thermal sensing and imaging. Lanthanide (Ln3+)-based nanophosphors are often proposed as NIR nanothermometers of...

Single vs. mutliparametric luminescence thermometry: the case of Eu3+-doped Ba3(VO4)2 nanophosphors

“…26–28 Luminescence thermometry can be realized using phosphors of various types: organic dyes, 8,29 metal–organic complexes and frameworks, 30,31 quantum dots and carbon quantum dots, 32,33 polymers, 34,35 and materials doped with rare earth or transition ions. 36,37…”

Exploring the Possibility of Using Stark Lines of Pr3+ in CaTiO3 Perovskite for Low Temperature Luminescence Thermometry

“…However, at low temperature the LIR method is useful as the results are not affected by the external parameters such as the spectral loss, fluctuations, and (or) electromagnetic compatibility. − Some guiding rules in this direction are published recently . LIR has recently been used to monitor temperature in varied application domains especially those related to biomedical sciences like monitoring brain activity, intracellular activity, , photothermal treatments and in vivo detection of inflammation and damage in ischemic tissues, monitoring combustion process, deep–tissue thermal imaging, measuring the liver and subcutaneous temperatures using Ag 2 S nanoparticles, and some others as summarized in ref . Similarly, the application of LIR can be found in other engineering domains like printed circuit boards (PCBs), nano- and microscale temperature monitoring, multimode temperature monitoring, monitoring permanent magnet-motor heating, and those summarized in ref .…”
