Optical temperature sensing based on the fluo-rescence intensity ratio(FIR)of red emission for lan-thanide ions holds significant relevance in non-contact temperature measurement for biological application.In this study,the perovskite-structured KZnF3 is utilized as a host material for Er3+to achieve a high-purity upconversion(UC)red emission.The observed Stark splitting of the red emission peak provides evidence of the energy level splitting of Er3+.Group theory is employed to decompose the spectral branching of Er3+ under the point group symmetry of KZnF3,allowing for the derivation of Stark splitting energy levels induced by the crystal field effect.The optical temperature-sensing behavior of the red UC luminescence was investigated,specifically examining the FIR of the splitting sub-peaks,which exhibited an expo-nential relationship with temperature.The KZnF3∶Yb3+,Er3+demonstrated a relative sensitivity(Sr)of 0.00182％·K-1 at 298 K,highlighting its excellent response to temperature.Ex vivo bio-thermometry exper-iments conducted on chicken breast validated the mate-rial's ability to penetrate biological tissues and showed its significant sensitivity of the FIR to temperature.These results establish KZnF3:Yb3+,Er3+as a promising material for optical thermometry in various biological applications.
