Sound, Force and Light Induced Emissions from Er3+‐Mn2+ Doped ZnS/CaZnOS Heterostructure for Remote Temperature Monitoring via Photo‐ and Mechanoluminescence

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Er3⁺/Mn2⁺ co‐doped ZnS/CaZnOS heterostructures are developed for remote temperature and force/sound sensing. The material exhibits UV/NIR photoluminescence, with energy transfer influencing color. Mechanoluminescence intensity is measured against applied power. Temperature‐dependent photoluminescence enabled luminescence thermometry.
