A superior double‐cladding optical fiber temperature sensor (OFTS) is fabricated by utilizing a bright and stable near‐pure green UC phosphor NaLu(WO4)2:Er3+/Yb3+ as sensing material. The OFTS exhibits a high temperature measurement accuracy of 0.155°C at 303 K, excellent measuring repeatability and chemical stability, along with strong resistance to ...
