“…Thermometric performance of FI mode can be evaluated by absolute sensitivity ( S A ) and S R ,
34 where Func denotes physical quantity of different modes ( FI , FIR and CIE coordinate in formula , 5, and 7, respectively). Calculated curves (Figure 5(C)) show that S Rmax‐ FI (maximum S R of FI mode) is as high as 2.21 %K −1 when temperature is 362 K. High S Rmax‐ FI is comparable to most thermometers relied on FI mode
11,35,36 . Notably, S R‐ FI values are higher than 1.36 %K −1 even when temperature increases to 513 K. It demonstrates that FI mode of NGMVO: x Sm 3+ can remain high accuracy even at 513 K. Temperature resolution ( δT ) represents minimum detectable temperature difference, and it can be computed by,
4 where δΔ / Δ is relative uncertainty of FS5 instrument.…”
