Accordingly, the efficiency luminescence of (Gd,Y)BO 3:Eu 3+ was explained as a result of CT transitions of Gd 3+-O 2- and Y 3+-O 2- under 147 nm excitation.

The PL spectrum of Y 0.95Eu 0.05AlO 3 is similar to that of Gd 0.95Eu 0.05AlO 3. Calculation of the color coordinates gives x=0.636, y=0.340 with a PL intensity of 50 of the (Gd,Y)BO 3:Eu 3+ (KX-504A) for Y 0.95Eu 0.05AlO 3, and confirms that it has the appearance of pure spectral red, corresponding approximately to 608 nm. It can be concluded that LnAlO 3:Eu 3+ is a promising red VUV phosphor.展开更多
