Based on a new scheme of ground state thermal coupling, high sensitive temperature sensing has been realized in the Sm3+ doped hexagonal NaGdF4 glass with high thermal stability. Two processes were used to create a temperature sensor with a wide temperature operating range and high relative sensitivity. Under resonance excitation, Sm3+ was directly populated to (4)G(5/2) from thermally activated H-6(7/2) (process A) and H-6(9/2) (process B) rather than ground state H-6(5/2). The increase in the anti-Stokes luminescence intensity from (4)G(5/2) with temperature was proposed to determine temperature. Relative sensitivity is 139,300/T-2 (%/K) at 303.6-570 K for process A and 282,300/T-2 (%/K) at 390-773 K for process B. The proposed approach not only effectively eliminates the heating effect caused by a laser and background Stokes-type scattering noise but also provides high quantum efficiency because of the one-photon excitation process. Combine the advantages of high thermal stability of glass and low phonon energy of fluoride, NaGdF4:Sm3+ glass ceramics have considerable potential applications in fiber optic temperature sensing with a wide temperature range and high sensitivity.
