Abstract
Laser Induced Fluorescence (LIF) was investigated for the potential use of full-field temperature measurements in high-temperature molten salt applications. The fluorescent spectra of Tb3+, Eu3+, and Dy3+ were measured using fiber optic spectroscopy in order to study the temperature dependence of lanthanides in the molten LiF-NaF-KF (FLiNaK) salt. Dy3+ showed to be the most suitable tracer for high-temperature molten salt applications due to its distinguishable primary peak at temperatures up to 700 °C.
