Popis: Optical thermometry and white light-emitting diodes (WLEDs) are the research hotspots for Eu3+ doped phosphors. In this study, a series of Sr2TiSi2O8: Eu3+ red phosphors were developed in a solid-state reaction method. The luminescent properties of the Sr2TiSi2O8: Eu3+ phosphor illustrate that Sr2TiSi2O8: Eu3+ is effectively excited by the NUV LED chip and emit an intense red light with a peak of 618 nm due to the noninversion symmetry coordination of Eu3+ in Sr2TiSi2O8. The local coordination environment of Eu3+ was investigated in detail using crystallographic data, spectroscopic data and Judd–Ofelt parameters. In addition, the emission intensity of Sr2TiSi2O8:Eu3+ is extremely sensitive to temperature. The relative sensitivity of Sr2TiSi2O8:Eu3+ is 1.1% k-1@300 k, which is comparable to other Eu3+-activated temperature sensing materials. The possible mechanism of the temperature sensitive quenching characteristics was proposed. The results indicate that Sr2TiSi2O8:Eu3+ is a potential temperature sensing material.
