In this study, a novel temperature-sensitive material, SrYGeO:Bi,Sm phosphor, was successfully synthesized by a solid-state reaction method. Under 376 nm light excitation, the as-prepared phosphor presents both blue emissions of Bi and orange red emissions of Sm due to energy transfer from Bi to Sm. Owing to the significant difference in thermal quenching properties and the distinguishable emission between Bi and Sm ions, the temperature sensing performance of the prepared phosphor was evaluated by measuring the fluorescence intensity ratio (FIR) of Sm Bi. More importantly, for the first time, it was found that the absolute and relative sensitivities of SrYGeO:Bi,Sm could be tuned by changing the concentration of activators to determine the optimal temperature measurement conditions, which opened up the possibility of improving the performance of fluorescence temperature sensing materials.

Chirp modulation can generate a relatively flat electro-optic frequency comb (EO comb) and offers the advantage of frequency reconfigurability, demonstrating significant potential in high-precision sensing and absorption spectroscopy measurements. However, nonresonant devices such as waveguides are susceptible to limitations in modulation efficiency and bandwidth during electro-optic modulation. In this paper, by utilizing chirp modulation resonance mode, we have realized an EO comb based on a lithium niobate resonator with small tooth spacing and high flatness.

To address these issues, this paper proposes a novel specially packaged optical microfiber coupler combined with a silver mirror (OMCM). OMCM is combined with a mechanically enhanced sensitivity fiber Bragg grating (FBG) to form a temperature-pressure sensor.

We used a single-mode-no-core-single-mode fiber structure coated by a magnetic fluid as a sensing element, and inserted the sensing element in the inner cavity of a laser. Highly sensitive, high signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), narrow half-height width (FWHM) sensing signals have been obtained using intra-laser cavity modulation.
