title: Thermally compensated temperature sensor capable of highly accurate measurements on surfaces.
abstract: A thermally compensated temperature sensor capable of highly accurate determination of surface temperatures has been demonstrated. The probe consists of a single crystal Y(3)Al(5)O(12) fiber terminating in a laser-heated Yb(3)Al(5)O(12) phosphor. It has been shown to have a measurement accuracy of approximately 1 degrees C. In principle, this device should work in the proximity as well as the contact mode.
