Abstract

Tellurite glasses are among the most interesting host matrices for various optical applications. The excellent optical and thermal properties of tellurite glasses are due to their high linear and nonlinear refractive indices, good transparency window, low phonon energy, high rare-earth solubility, and thermal stability. One of the promising applications of tellurite glasses is in optical thermometry. In this chapter, we review the fundaments of thermometry by luminescence spectroscopy, the theoretical background to calculate the thermal sensibility of rare-earth ion-doped materials, and some examples of the thermometry done on tellurite glasses as well as some other host matrices. For example, Er3+-doped tellurite glasses are given as thermal sensors applied in the visible spectral region, where the fluorescent intensity ratio of two green emission bands plays the role to optically determine the temperature. On the other hand, Nd3+ ion-doped glasses could be used to measure the temperature in the near-infrared region, using the intensity ratio variations of principal emissions in the 800–1400 nm spectral range. Thermal sensibility of each case is compared to various glass host compositions.
