Abstract
A LED‐based fiber‐optic temperature sensor is developed which uses the change in the wavelength distribution of emission of fluorescence from a small sample of pink ruby as the means of sensing temperature. An all fiber‐optic system is described using simple electronics to measure temperature in the range from 293 to 433 K, with an accuracy of ±3 K.Keywords
