Trends in luminescence thermometry

Following astonishing growth in the last decade, the field of luminescence thermometry has reached the stage of becoming a mature technology. To achieve that goal, further developments should resolve inherent problems and methodological faults to facilitate its widespread use. This perspective presents recent findings in luminescence thermometry, with the aim of providing a guide for the reader to the paths in which this field is currently directed. Besides the well-known temperature read-out techniques, which are outlined and compared in terms of performance, some recently introduced read-out methods have been discussed in more detail. These include intensity ratio measurements that exploit emissions from…
