英文摘要	Developing optical temperature sensors with a wider range, higher sensitivity and repeatability based on Er3+/Yb3+ doped upconverting phosphors has always been at the forefront of temperature measurement technologies. Here, we report the intense green upconversion luminescence in Er3+/Yb3+ doped -Sc4Zr3O12 for the first time and its temperature sensing performance is investigated. The structure of -Sc4Zr3O12 is given by Rietveld refinement of XRD data and the site occupancy of Er3+ ions has been determined. Compared with cubic Sc2O3 and ZrO2, under 972 nm excitation, the green emission from Er3+ centers in Sc4Zr3O12 is increased by 59-fold and 264-fold, respectively. By experimental analysis, this enhancement of upconversion luminescence is attributed to the low-symmetrical environment of Er3+, generation of Yb3+ clusters and high internal efficiency of Yb3+ emission in Sc4Zr3O12. In addition, the fluorescence intensity ratio of two green emission bands (H-2(11/2)/S-4(3/2) I-4(15/2)) is studied as a function of temperature ranging from 303 to 793 K in Sc4Zr3O12. The maximum sensitivity observed via calculation is 0.00634 K-1 at 573 K, and the sensitivity is still as high as 0.00534 K-1 at 793 K. The stability of a Sc4Zr3O12 thermometer is also examined via a recycling test. These findings suggest that -Sc4Zr3O12 is a promising upconversion host and could achieve high-sensitivity optical temperature sensing with a wide measuring range.
