title = "LED excited phosphor thermometry in excess of 1000°C",
abstract = "In most high temperature phosphor thermography applications, a laser light source is used. The high power density of the excitation light helps to overcome some of the limitations of the phosphor emission and blackbody background. The increase in availability and intensity of ultraviolet (UV) and blue LEDs has allowed for expansion of the phosphor thermometry technique. LEDs have some advantages over lasers. - LEDs are less expensive to purchase and operate. - Because the power density of the LED is less than a laser, fewer safety precautions are required. For this effort, several yttrium aluminum garnet and yttrium oxide based phosphors were evaluated. As a proof of principle, decay times were measured for temperatures up to and in excess of 1000 °C.",
