Efficient VUV sensitization of Eu3+ emission by Tb3+ in potassium rare-earth double phosphate
The luminescence properties of K3Tb(PO4)2 activated by Eu3+ were studied at excitation over the 120-300 nm wavelength range. It is demonstrated that Tb3+ ions, exhibiting a strong absorption band in the vacuum-ultraviolet (VUV), can provide efficient sensitisation of Eu3+ emission in this wave lengt...
