Abstrakt: The demand for accurate temperature readings in harsh high-temperature environments includes miniaturization, flexibility, visualization, and integrability of temperature sensors with the growing need for human development. Rare earth-doped non-contact fluorescence intensity ratio (FIR) temperature sensors have received widespread attention due to their high detection accuracy and fast response ability. However, the limitations of thermal quenching (TQ) and thermal coupling energy level differences restrict their applications. In this work, a novel temperature sensing method in Eu3+/Tb3+-doped Y2Mo3O12 negative thermal expansion (NTE) materials is proposed, which depends on different energy transfer characteristics of Eu3+- and Tb3+-doped NTE materials. Under a 295 nm excitation laser, the Y2Mo3O12:Eu3+ phosphor achieved 600% enhancement due to the charge-transfer band (CTB) absorption between O2− and MoO42−. At 573 K, the luminescence intensity of Y2Mo3O12:Tb3+ is reduced by 30 times due to the absence of energy transfer between the Tb3+ ions and Y2Mo3O12 NTE materials. The Y2Mo3O12:Eu3+/Tb3+ mixing materials enhance the relative luminescence intensity and solve the thermal coupling energy level differences, achieving high sensitivity and resolution (maximum Sr = 2.56% K−1 at 453 K). The Y2Mo3O12:Eu3+/Tb3+ flexible thin film achieves multiple naked-eye color spans, breaking free from the limitations of optical detection instruments and demonstrating strong potential for robust and direct temperature reading without equipment. This demonstrates their superior advantages for visualizing real-time high-temperature sensing with nonplanar surfaces, thermal defect diagnosis systems, intelligent battery monitoring systems, and other high-temperature sensing fields.
