A luminescent thermometer is a non-contact device that measures temperature based on the temperature dependence of a probe's luminescence properties, such as fluorescence intensity, lifetime, or wavelength. This study focuses on the intensity ratio of emissions from different excited states. Calcite, the stable phase of CaCO3, has a layered structure composed of molecular CO32- ions. With increasing temperature, these ions rotate and lose orientation, leading to a phase transition. In Eu3+-doped CaCO3, the 5D0-7F1 transition is a magnetic dipole (MD), while 5D0-7F2 is an electric dipole (ED). The MD transition is relatively insensitive to the local environment, whereas the ED transition is highly sensitive to structural changes. This study proposes using the temperature-induced variation in the ED/MD intensity ratio as a thermometric parameter, exploring the potential of Eu3+-doped CaCO3 as a luminescent thermometer and examining how molecular anions influence luminescence behavior.
