A1 Martín Benenzuela, Inocencio Rafael A1 Hraiech, S. A2 Física A2 Instituto Universitario de Materiales y Nanotecnología (IMN) AB Microspheres of diameters ranging from 30 μm to 100 μm, obtained from 0.1Pr3+-0.5Yb3+ codoped phosphate glass were fabricated and calibrated as optical temperature sensor. When themicrospheres where pumped under 457 nm laser excitation, Pr3+ typical emission was observed aswell as emission due to a Down Conversion (DC) process from Pr3+ to Yb3+ ions. Furthermore,whispering gallery modes (WGM) peaks superimposed to the Pr3+ and DC emission bands wereobserved. The microsphere was calibrated as a function of temperature using the intensity ratio ofthe 925 and 875 nm Pr3+ bands and the spectral red-shift from the WGM. Temperature uncertaintywas obtained from both techniques obtaining values of 0.7 K and 0.4 K for the band ratio andWGM results, respectively.
