Techniques of X-ray diffraction （XRD）, scanning electron microscopy （SEM）, as well as transmission electron microscopy （TEM） were employed to characterize the as-synthesized sample.

The results showed that the incorporation of Li＋ ions into the YPOa：Eu3＋ lattice could induce a remarkable improvement of the PL intensity.
