Luminescent Thermometers deals with all the aspects of the subject from principles of methods to their applications in different areas. The book familiarizes the readers with the fundamentals of luminescence thermometry, materials used for the development of different luminescence thermometers viz. metal organic frameworks (MOFs) including lanthanide doped MOFs referred as LOFs, quantum dots (QDs), rare earth doped phosphors and upconversion phosphors. Further some advanced and next generation approaches for luminescent thermometers such as carbon-based materials, nano-composites, double perovskites and garnet systems are assimilated. The applications of luminescence thermometers in temperature sensing of biological cells and tumors, thermal imaging of biological cells, flexible temperature sensors, health monitoring with wearable thermometers and environmental monitoring are the key features of this volume. It is a resourceful literature for material scientists and engineers in academia and R & D as well as researchers working in biology and environment science.
