ResumoThis work presents the vacuum ultraviolet−visible spectroscopic properties of Tb3+ in Li(Y, Gd)(PO3)4:Tb3+ phosphors prepared by a high-temperature solid-state reaction. Under vacuum ultraviolet light excitation, tunable emission from the greenish-blue to yellowish-green region was obtained by changing the doping concentration of Tb3+. The visible quantum cutting via cross-relaxation between Tb3+ ions was observed and confirmed in the high Tb3+ concentration sample. In addition, the energy-transfer process from Gd3+ to Tb3+ as well as 5D3−5D4 cross-relaxation was also investigated and discussed in term of luminescence spectra and decay curves.
