The demand for accurate temperature readings in harsh high-temperature environments includes miniaturization, flexibility, visualization, and integrability of temperature sensors with the growing need for human development. Rare earth-doped non-contact fluorescence intensity ratio (FIR) temperature sensors have received widespread attention due to their high detection accuracy and fast response ability. However, the limitations of thermal quenching (TQ) and thermal coupling energy level differences restrict their applications. In this work, a novel temperature sensing method in Eu3+/Tb3+-doped Y2Mo3O12 negative thermal expansion (NTE) materials is proposed, which depends on different energy transfer characteristics of Eu3+- and Tb3+-doped NTE materials. Under a 295 nm excitation laser, the Y2Mo3O12:Eu3+ phosphor achieved 600% enhancement due to the charge-transfer band (CTB) absorption between O2− and MoO42−. At 573 K, the luminescence intensity of Y2Mo3O12:Tb3+ is reduced by 30 times due to the absence of energy transfer between the Tb3+ ions and Y2Mo3O12 NTE materials. The Y2Mo3O12:Eu3+/Tb3+ mixing materials enhance the relative luminescence intensity and solve the thermal coupling energy level differences, achieving high sensitivity and resolution (maximum Sr = 2.56% K−1 at 453 K). The Y2Mo3O12:Eu3+/Tb3+ flexible thin film achieves multiple naked-eye color spans, breaking free from the limitations of optical detection instruments and demonstrating strong potential for robust and direct temperature reading without equipment. This demonstrates their superior advantages for visualizing real-time high-temperature sensing with nonplanar surfaces, thermal defect diagnosis systems, intelligent battery monitoring systems, and other high-temperature sensing fields.

Porous double-channel α-Fe 2 O 3 /SnO 2 heterostructures with tunable surface/interface transport mechanism have been originally fabricated by the electrospinning and subsequent calcination process. With the increase of Sn content from 0 to 5 mol%, the morphology of α-Fe 2 O 3 -based materials changed from porous fibers to ribbons with both sides curled inward. Double-channel structure can provide more active sites and enhanced adsorption capacity with the large specific surface areas of 233.2 m 2 /g. The optimal α-Fe 2 O 3 /SnO 2 composites exhibit the highest response value (32.38) and fastest response/recovery times (33/58 s) than those of other samples to 100 ppm N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF) at 360 °C. Meanwhile, good cycling and long-term stability and high gas selectivity of the composites are conductive to the feasible detection to DMF under high temperature (≥360 °C) condition. The enhanced gas-sensitive properties of α-Fe 2 O 3 /SnO 2 composites at high temperature are closely related to phase composition, unique morphology, efficient n-n heterojunction and accelerated surface/interface charge transfer process. Significantly, the porous double-channel α-Fe 2 O 3 /SnO 2 composite is expected to be a potential candidate for DMF vapor detection in the dye or pesticide industry to prevent DMF explosion under high temperature conditions in the future.

Background Folate is an essential nutrient, but its bioavailability varies greatly depending on the molecular form present in food. The intake of forms that are not readily absorbed by the human body may lead to insufficient folate levels, particularly during pregnancy, thereby increasing the risk of birth defects. As a result, it is essential to develop a highly sensitive and accurate method capable of distinguishing between the two most common natural folates, 5-methyltetrahydrofolate (5-MTHF) and 5-formyltetrahydrofolate (5-FTHF), to ensure proper folate intake and health outcomes. Results In this study, a photochemical method was employed to load gold nanoparticles (Au NPs) onto carbon nanotubes (CNTs), successfully synthesizing CNTs@Au NPs nanocomposites that exhibit excellent thermal stability and robust surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) activity. These nanocomposites, capable of maintaining structural integrity at temperatures as high as 400 °C, serve as highly effective substrates for in situ high-temperature SERS detection. Using this reliable high-temperature-assisted SERS approach, the structural changes of both folates at elevated temperatures were effectively monitored, enabling clear molecular fingerprinting and distinct differentiation between the two natural folates. Moreover, the CNTs@Au NPs demonstrate exceptional sensitivity, achieving a detection limit as low as 10 -8 M for both 5-MTHF and 5-FTHF, enabling accurate quantification of mixed folate samples and demonstrating reliable performance in real sample analysis. Significance The CNTs@Au NPs with in situ high-temperature SERS capabilities show great potential for various analytical applications. In particular, they provide an effective method for monitoring the quality of folate in dietary supplements and fortified foods, thus contributing significantly to the safety and quality assurance of folate products in the market.
