In this work, we present a highly sensitive optical thermometer, Tm3+/Yb3+ co-doped Sr2GdF7 transparent oxyfluoride glass ceramic (GC). Sr2GdF7:Tm3+/Yb3+ GC was synthesized by traditional melt-quenching method with further crystallization process. Its structural and optical properties were systemati...
