$Tb^{3+}-activated$ green-emitting $(Y,Gd)Ga_3(BO_3)_4$ phosphor has been investigated. The main absorption was in the $120{\sim}238$ nm and exhibited a green emission with the 545 nm and several peaks due to inner shell transition of $Tb^{3+}$ ion. With the optimized $Tb^{3+}$ concentrations, the maximum emission brightness was 90% of the $Zn_2SiO_4$:Mn phosphor.

The transition of europium-doped gadolinium oxide phosphor to gadolinium borate phosphor with the concentration of boron in the spray pyrolysis was investigated. The particles prepared from spray solution below 10 wt% boric acid of prepared phosphor had crystal structure of $Gd_2O_3:Eu$ phosphor, in which the crystallinity of the particles decreased with increasing the boron concentration. A single phase $GdBO_3:Eu$ phosphor particles were prepared from spray solution above 50 wt% boric acid of prepared phosphor. The phosphor particles prepared from spray solution with 20 wt% boric acid of prepared phosphor had no XRD peaks of $Gd_2O_3:Eu$ and $GdBO_3:Eu$ Therefore the phosphor particles prepared from spray solution with 20 wt% boric acid of prepared phosphor had the lowest photoluminescence intensity under ultraviolet and vacuum ultraviolet. $GdBO_3:Eu$ and $Gd_2O_3:Eu$ phosphor particles prepared from spray solutions with proper concentrations of boric acid had good photoluminescence intensity under vacuum ultraviolet. The morphology of the phosphor particles were strongly affected by the concentrations of boric acid added into spray solution.

The ultrasonic spray method was employed to make (Y,Gd)BO$_3$:Eu Phosphor, and its optical properties under 147nm VUV and 254 nm UV excitations were characterized and then compared with that produced by the solid-state reaction. The mixed solution of acetate hydrates of Y, Gd, Eu and boric acid diluted in water or methanol was used as the precursor fur the spray. It was found that (Y,Gd)BO$_3$:Eu phosphor made by this ultrasonic spray had a spherical shape and fine particle size of 1${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$. The crystalline structure for the as-sprayed phosphor was amorphous, but it converted into the same polycrystalline phase of solid state reaction after post heat treatment at 110$0^{\circ}C$ for 2hr. The emitting intensity under VUV and UV excitations for the spray-formed (Y,Gd)BO$_3$:Eu phosphor, however, was inferior to the later one. The excitation spectra were also studied and compared under VUV and UV excitations to explain the change of emitting intensity with Gd substitution in (Y$_{1-x}$ Gd$_{x}$)BO$_3$:Eu Phosphors made by spray and solid state reaction.on.

A borate compound was adopted as new host material for $Eu^{3+}$, $Tb^{3+}$ and $Tm^{3+}$ activators. The phosphor samples, $Gd_{1-x}Eu_xCa_3(GaO)_3(BO_3)_4$, $Gd_{1-x}Tb_xCa_3(GaO)_3(BO3)_4$ and $Gd_{1-x}Tm_xCa_3(GaO)_3(BO_3)_4$ have been synthesized by conventional solid-state reaction. The crystalline phase for the resulting powders was identified using an X-ray diffraction $system^1$. Their photoluminescence properties under the excitation of UV ray were investigated. The Eu, Tb or Tm-doped $GdCa_3(GaO)_3(BO_3)_4$ emits efficient red, green or blue light, respectively. It was observed that the optimum concentration of Eu or Tb activator for the borate host was much higher than other $Eu^{3+}$ or $Tb^{3+}-doped$ phosphors.

The new green and red phosphors for PDP application activated by T $b^{3+}$ and E $u^{3+}$ were synthesized, and their photoluminance properties were investigated. It was found that the brightness of $Al_3$Gd $B_4$ $O_{12}$ :T $b^{3+}$ green phosphor under 147nm VUV irradiation was higher than that of commercial Z $n_2$ $SiO_4$:M $n^{2+}$ phosphor. But the emitting intensity of A1$_3$Gd $B_4$ $O^{12}$ :E $u^{3+}$ red phosphor was inferior to the commercial (Y,Gd)B $O_3$:E $u^{3+}$. $Al_3$Gd $B_4$ $O_{12}$ Phosphor had a strong excitation band at 160nm associated with the host absorption, and also the photoluminance excitation intensity of $Al_3$Gd $B_4$ $O_{12}$ :T $b^{3+}$ was higher than that of Z $n_2$ $SiO_4$:M $n^{2+}$, but the intensity of $Al_3$Gd $B_4$ $O_{12}$ :E $u^{3+}$ phosphor was smaller than (Y,Gd)B $O_3$:E $u^{3+}$ phosphor In the VUV range. C $e^{3+}$ co-doping in A1$_3$Gd $B_4$ $O^{12}$ :E $u^{3+}$ and substitution of $Al^{3+}$ by G $a^{3+}$ A1$_3$Gd $B_4$ $O^{12}$ :E $u^{3+}$ phosphor were tried, but they did not improved the optical property .d the optical property .ty .

A borate compound was adopted as new host material for $EU^{3+}$ activator. The $Eu^{3+}-doped\;YCa_3(GaO)_3(BO_3)_4$ (YCGB) phosphors were successfully synthesized. Also, their photoluminescence properties under the excitation of UV ray were measured. In the XRD patterns of the synthesized powders, most peaks were well-matched to a gaudefroyite phase. The emission of $Eu^{3+}$ in YCGB consists of a strong peak centered at 622 nm, which is attributed to $^5D_O-^7F_2$ transition of $Eu^{3+}$ and several weak peaks at near the wavelength. Optimum $Eu^{3+}$ concentration of the red phosphor under the excitation with the wavelength of 395 nm was about 75 mol%. This indicates that the red phosphor has a relatively higher critical concentration than that of the other $Eu^{3+}-doped$ phosphors. The dominant interaction character of $Eu^{3+}$ might be dipole-dipole interaction.

The compounds, CaAl$_2$(BO$_3$)$_2$O, SrAl$_2$(BO$_3$)$_2$O and BaAl$_2$(BO$_3$)$_2$O, are good host lattices for highly efficient $Eu^{2+}$ luminescence. The europium emission peaks at 450 nm in $Eu^{2+}$:CaAl$_2$(B0$_3$)$_2$O, 411 nm in $Eu^{2+}$: SrAl$_2$(BO$_3$)$_2$O and 375 nm in $Eu^{2+}$: BaAl$_2$(BO$_3$)$_2$O. The $Eu^{2+}$: CaAl$_2$(BO$_3$)$_2$O Phosphor shows a high output and should be a good maintenance in VUV Xe lamps. It is ideally suited for use in PDP phosphors. The $Eu^{2+}$ ion is interesting because the Stokes shift emission is a strong host dependent. The difference in the Stokes shift is oneimportant factor leadingto a difference in wavelength. If the 5d level of $Eu^{2+}$ ion is lower in energy,according to a decrease in the doping lattice size, then the emission wavelength will be longer and the Stokes shift will be smaller. Therefore, a knowledge of the relationship between the crystal lattice size and the Stokes shift. (orthe energy of the 5d level),is essential for beingable to predict $Eu^{2+}$ emission properties.
