Quantifying temperature variations at the micron scale can provide new opportunities in optical sensing. In this paper, we present a novel approach using the temperature-dependent variations in fluorescence of rare-earth doped tellurite glass to provide a micron-scale image of temperature variations over a 200 micrometre field of view. We demonstrate the system by monitoring the evaporation of a water droplet and report a net temperature change of 7.04 K with a sensitivity of at least 0.12 K. These results establish the practicality of this confocal-based approach to provide high-resolution marker-free optical temperature sensing.

Diamond containing the negatively charged nitrogen-vacancy (NV) center is emerging as a significant new system for magnetometry. However, most NV sensors require microscopes to collect the fluorescence signals and are therefore limited to laboratory
settings. By incorporating micron-scale diamond particles at an annular interface within the cross section of a silicate glass fiber, a high-sensitivity and robust fiber platform for magnetic field sensing is demonstrated here. The fluorescence and spin properties of NV centers embedded in the diamond crystals are well preserved during the fiber drawing process, leading to enhanced continuous-wave diamond-magnetometry in fiber-transmitted sensing configurations. The interface doping of diamond particles also leads to reduced fiber propagation loss and benefits the guidance of NV-fluorescence in the hybrid fiber. Using the diamond-fiber system, magnetic field readout through 50 cm of fiber is achieved. This study paves the way for novel fiber-based diamond sensors for field-deployable quantum metrology applications.
Tellurite glass fibers with embedded nanodiamond are attractive materials for quantum photonics applications. Reducing the loss of these fibers in the 600-800 nm wavelength range of nanodiamond fluorescence is essential to exploit the unique properti
es of nanodiamond in the new hybrid material. The first part of this study reported the origin of loss in nanodiamond-doped glass and impact of glass fabrication conditions. Here, we report the fabrication of nanodiamond-doped tellurite fibers with significantly reduced loss in the visible through further understanding of the impact of glass fabrication conditions on the interaction of the glass melt with the embedded nanodiamond. We fabricated tellurite fibers containing nanodiamond in concentrations up to 0.7 ppm-weight, while reducing the loss by more than an order of magnitude down to 10 dB/m at 600-800 nm.

s of nanodiamond in the new hybrid material. In the first part of this study, we report the effect of interaction of the tellurite glass melt with the embedded nanodiamond on the loss of the glasses. The glass fabrication conditions such as melting temperature and concentration of NDs added to the melt were found to have critical influence on the interaction. Based on this understanding, we identified promising fabrication conditions for decreasing the loss to levels required for practical applications.
Absorption spectra of Ni$^{2+}$ ions in 22WO$_3$--78TeO$_2$ tungstate-tellurite glass were studied and Ni$^{2+}$ extinction coefficient spectral dependence was derived in the 450 -- 2700 nm wavelength range. Computer modeling of the glass structure p
roved Ni$^{2+}$ ions to be in trigonal-distorted octahedral environment in the tungstate-tellurite glass. Tanabe-Sugano diagram for such an environment was calculated and good description of the observed spectrum of Ni$^{2+}$ ion was obtained. Basing on both absorption spectral range width and the extinction coefficient, nickel should be considered among the most strongly absorbing impurities in the tellurite glasses.
Color centers in solids are the fundamental constituents of a plethora of applications such as lasers, light emitting diodes and sensors, as well as the foundation of advanced quantum information and communication technologies. Their photoluminescenc
e properties are usually studied under Stokes excitation, in which the emitted photons are at a lower energy than the excitation ones. In this work, we explore the opposite Anti-Stokes process, where excitation is performed with lower energy photons. We report that the process is sufficiently efficient to excite even a single quantum system, namely the germanium-vacancy center in diamond. Consequently, we leverage the temperature-dependent, phonon-assisted mechanism to realize an all-optical nanoscale thermometry scheme that outperforms any homologous optical method employed to date. Our results frame a promising approach for exploring fundamental light-matter interactions in isolated quantum systems, and harness it towards the realization of practical nanoscale thermometry and sensing.
