Abstract
The metastable garnet lattice of Gd3Al5O12 is stabilized by doping with smaller Lu3+, which then allows an effective incorporation of larger Eu3+ activators. The [(Gd1-x Lu x )1-y Eu y ]3Al5O12 (x = 0.1-0.5, y = 0.01-0.09) garnet solid solutions, calcined from their precursors synthesized via carbonate coprecipitation, exhibit strong luminescence at 591 nm (the 5D0 → 7F1 magnetic dipole transition of Eu3+) upon UV excitation into the charge transfer band (CTB) at ∼239 nm, with CIE chromaticity coordinates of x = 0.620 and y = 0.380 (orange-red). The quenching concentration of Eu3+ was estimated at ∼5 at.% (y = 0.05), and the quenching was attributed to exchange interactions. Partial replacement of Gd3+ with Lu3+ up to 50 at.% (x = 0.5) while keeping Eu3+ at the optimal content of 5 at.% does not significantly alter the peak positions of the CTB and 5D0 → 7F1 emission bands but slightly weakens both bands owing to the higher electronegativity of Lu3+. The effects of processing temperature (1000-1500 °C) and Lu/Eu contents on the intensity, quantum efficiency, lifetime and asymmetry factor of luminescence were thoroughly investigated. The [(Gd0.7Lu0.3)0.95Eu0.05]3Al5O12 phosphor processed at 1500 °C exhibits a high internal quantum efficiency of ∼83.2% under 239 nm excitation, which, in combination with the high theoretical density, favors its use as a new type of photoluminescent and scintillation material.

Abstract
ABSTRACTChromium doped yttrium aluminum garnet (Y3Al5O12:Cr or YAG:Cr) phosphors were synthesized by hydrolysis of aqueous nitrate solutions. The resulting as-synthesized powder was amorphous and crystallized into the YAG structure at ~1000°C. The light output as a function of annealing temperature was found to increase with increasing temperature. Particle size, adsorbed surface species or residual impurities, lattice stability and chromium site occupation were investigated as possible explanations. It was found that there was a small decrease in lattice parameter upon annealing, the particle size increased roughly five times, and residual or adsorbed surface species were present for the low temperature annealed powders. There was no evidence that kinetic barriers to diffusion of Cr ions into the luminescent sites occurred.
