简介
Ratiometric mechanoluminescence (RML) improves accuracy and stability over absolute emission intensity by encoding mechanical information into the intensity ratio of multiple emission channels. However, existing RML approaches mainly rely on multi‐ion doping or multi‐component systems with limited controllability, spectral overlap, and complex energy transfer. Here, we report a single‐ion Tm3+ activated RML material, YVO4:Tm3+, showing sharp dual emissions in the visible and near‐infrared (NIR) under mechanical stress. Two well‐resolved peaks at 474 nm and 800 nm arise from distinct intra‐4f transitions of Tm3+ activators, with a large spectral separation of 326 nm for high‐fidelity discrimination. Mechanistic studies indicate that ratiometric behavior originates from stress‐modulated energy transfer between the YVO4 lattice and Tm3+ activators. Under low stress, energy transfer from the 3T1 host level …
