contents The ratiometric approach is the most commonly employed readout technique in luminescence thermometry. To address the trade-off between the risk of measurement disturbance in thermometers with high spectral separation of emission bands (due to dispersion in the surrounding medium) and the low sensitivity observed in ratiometric thermometers based on Stark level thermalization, we propose a thermometer based on the structural phase transition in . The use of Yb3+ ions as dopants and the changes in Stark level energies associated with the thermally induced monoclinic-to-trigonal phase transition enable the development of a thermometer with high relative sensitivity, achieving at 340K for N. Additionally, as demonstrated, the structural transition alters the probability of radiative depopulation of the 2F5/2 state of Yb3+, allowing the development of a lifetime-based luminescence thermometer. Furthermore, the phase transition temperature and consequently the thermometric performance of can be modulated by varying the Yb3+ ion concentration, offering additional tunability for specific applications.
