Measurement of oxygen concentration in high-temperature environments.

Caption

Pusan National University researchers have developed a contactless method for accurately measuring oxygen concentration at high temperature conditions by using the phosphorescence of europium-doped yttrium oxide (Y2O3:Eu3+), which is sensitive to the oxygen concentration.
