A new approach to enhance the sensitivity of transition metal ion based nanocrystalline luminescent thermometer is presented. It was shown that the increase of Cr3+ concentration in three types of garnet host namely Y3Al5O12, Y3Al2Ga3O12, and Y(3)Al(2)Ga(3)O(12 )allows for significant enhancement of their performance in non-contact thermometry. This phenomenon is related to the weakening of the crystal field strength due to enlargement of average Cr3+-O2- distance at higher Cr3+ concentrations. By increasing Cr3+ concentration from 0.6 to 30%, the sensitivity increased by over one order of magnitude from S = 0.2%/degrees C to S = 2.2%/degrees C at 9 degrees C in Y3Al2Ga3O12 nanocrystals. Moreover, it was found that due to the Cr3+-> Nd3+ energy transfer in the Cr3+, Nd3+ co-doped system, the usable Cr3+ concentration, for which its emission can be detected, is limited to 10% while the sensitivity at -50 degrees C was doubled (from 1.3%/degrees C for Y3Al2Ga3O12:10%Cr3+ to 2.2%/degrees C Y3Al2Ga3O12:10%Cr3+, 1%Nd3+ nanocrystals).
