Abstract

Abstract : Lanthanide‐doped vanadate thin films offer (i) a promising platform for luminescence‐based noncontact temperature sensing; (ii) ratiometric/self‐referencing absolute measurements; (iii) exceptional repeatability and reversibility for multirun uses and a long life cycle; (iv) 2% K −1 maximum temperature sensitivity (among the highest recorded for inorganic nanothermometers); (v) a temperature resolution greater than 0.5 K; and (vi) the potential for high‐resolution 2D temperature mapping.
