The $ZnGa_2O_4$ and Mn, Cr-doped $ZnGa_2O_4$ Phosphors were synthesized through conventional solid state reactions. The XRD patterns show that the $ZnGa_2O_4$ has a (3 1 1) main peak and a spinel phase. The emission wavelength of $ZnGa_2O_4$ showed main peak of 420 nm and maximum intensity at the sintering temperature of $1100^{\circ}C$. In the crystalline $ZnGa_2O_4$, the Mn shows green emission (510 nm, $^4T_1-^6A_1$) with a quenching concentration of 0.6 mol%, and the Cr shows red emission (705 nm, $^4T_2-^4A_2$) with a quenching concentration of 2 mol%. These results indicate that $ZnGa_2O_4$ Phosphors hold promise for potential applications in field emission display devices with high brightness operating in full color regions.

[ $Y_{1-x}BO_3:Tb_x^{3+}$ ]ceramic phosphors were synthesized with changing the concentration of $Tb^{3+}$ at a sintering temperature of $1,100^{\circ}C$ and a reduction temperature of $950^{\circ}C$ by using a solid-state reaction method. The crystal structure, surface morphology, and photoluminescence properties of the phosphors were investigated as a function of $Tb^{3+}$ ion concentration by using XRD (x-ray diffractometer), scanning electron microscopy, and photoluminescence spectrophotometry, respectively. The XRD results showed that the main peak of the phosphor powders occurs at (101) plane. As for the photoluminescence properties, the excitation spectra showed the broad band centered at 306 nm and the emission intensity of the spectra peaked at 543 nm indicated a significant decrease as the concentration of $Tb^{3+}$ ion is increased.

The mechanochemical process were employed to prepare the red phosphors (Y,Gd)$BO_3:Eu^{3+}$. The main factors affecting particle size, particle distribution, and luminescent properties of the product were investigated in details. Particles sized around 200-600 nm are formed after intensive milling. The phosphors were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscope (SEM) and photoluminescence spectrum. Results revealed that phosphors with different morphology, small particle size and high luminescence intensity could be obtained by mechanochemical process.

The ZnS/CdS thin films were made using 99.99% ZnS and CdS(Aldrich) powders in $7{\times}10^{-6}torr$. The ZnS layer was coated over the CdS layer on an AlOx membrane within a vacuum, at the average speed of $1{\AA}/sec$. After studying the ZnS/CdS and CdS thin films(both with the dimensions of 2.52nm), using fluorescence spectroscopy and comparing the respective results together, we found that although both of the resulting spectra peaked at 390nm, the ZnS/CdS thin films showed a narrower peak, and a higher intensity of photoluminescence than the CdS thin films. The particles of ZnS/CdS thin films also proved to be more homogeneous in size. In addition, the ZnS layer acted as a protective layer. Also, after studying the spectra of ZnS/CdS thin films taken 30 days after their preparation, we found no signs of aging. These results were verified through the scanning electron microscopy(SEM), EDX analysis, thin film X-ray diffraction, and luminescence spectroscopy.

The nano and micro-sized $ZnGa_2O_4$ phosphor were prepared by precipitation method and solid-state method. The luminescence, formation process and structure of phosphor powders were investigated by means of XRD, SEM and PL. The result of XRD analysis showed that $ZnGa_2O_4$ spinel structure was formed at as-prepared in the case of precipitation method. However, micro-sized phosphor was required high heating treatment to have a satisfactory spinel structure. The CL intensity of nano-sized phosphor was about 4-fold higher than that of micro-sized phosphor. The emission spectra of all $ZnGa_2O_4$ phosphor show a self activated blue emission band at around 420 nm in the wide range of 300~600 nm.

For this study, terbium-doped yttrium aluminum garnet (YAG:Tb) phosphor powders were prepared via the combustion process using the varous reagents. The characteristics of the synthesized nano powder were investigated by means of X-ray diffraction (XRD), Scanning Electron Microscope(SEM), and photoluminescence (PL). Single-phase cubic YAG:Tb crystalline powder was obtained at $1000^{\circ}C$ by directly crystallizing it from amorphous materials, as determined by XRD techniques. The SEM image showed that the resulting YAG:Tb powders had uniform sizes and good homogeneity. The photoluminescence spectra of the YAG:Tb nanoparticles were investigated to determinethe energy level of electron transition related to luminescence processes. There were three peaks in the excited spectrum, and the major one was a broad band of around 274 nm. Also, the YAG:Tb nanoparticles showed two emission peaks in the range of 450~500 nm and 525~560 nm, respectively, and had maximum intensity at 545 nm.

ZnS nanoparticles were synthesized and doped with $Pr^{3+}\;and\;Mn^{2+}$. Photoluminescence(PL) peaks were observed at 430 nm for pure ZnS, 585 nm for $Mn^{2+}-doped$ ZnS, and at around 430, 460, 480, 495 nm for ZnS nanoparticles doped with $Pr^{3+}$, respectively. For co-doped sample, both characteristics of doping with each element were exhibited. Optical annealing through UV irradiation was carried out in the two atmospheres; air and vacuum. The increases of the luminescence intensity was more considerable in the air, which is attributed to the photo-induced oxidation. In the case of co-doped sample the change of the emission color was observed by UV annealing.

The Ce-doped YAG(Yttrium Aluminum Garnet, $Y_3Al_5O_{12}$) phosphor powders were synthesized by Sol-gel method. The luminescence, formation process and structure of phosphor powders were investigated by means of XRD, SEM and PL. The XRD patterns show that YAG phase can form through sintering at $1000^{\circ}C$ for 2h. This temperature is much lower than that required to synthesize YAG phase via the conventional solid state reaction method. There were no intermediate phases such as YAP(Yttrium Aluminum Perovskite, $YAlO_3$) and YAM(Yttrium Aluminum Monoclinic, $Y_4Al_2O_9$) observed in the sintering process. The powders absorbed excitation energy in the range 410~510nm. Also, the crystalline YAG:Ce showed broad emission peaks in the range 480~600nm and had maximum intensity at 528nm.

Spherical $CeO_2:Ho^{3+}/Yb^{3+}$ particles were synthesized using spray pyrolysis, and the upconversion (UC) properties were investigated with changing the preparation conditions and the infrared pumping power. The resulting particles had a size of about $1{\mu}m$ and hollow structure. The prepared $CeO_2:Ho^{3+}/Yb^{3+}$ particles exhibited intense green emission due to the $^5F_4/^5S_2{\rightarrow}^5I_8$ transition of $Ho^{3+}$ and showed weak red or near-IR peaks. In terms of achieving the highest UC emission, the optimal concentrations of $Ho^{3+}$ and $Yb^{3+}$ were 0.3% and 2.0%, respectively. The UC emission intensity of prepared $CeO_2:Ho^{3+}/Yb^{3+}$ particles had a linear relationship with crystallite size and concentration quenching was caused by dipole-dipole interaction between the same ions. Based on the dependency of UC emission on the pumping power, the observed green upconversion was achieved through a typical two-photon process and concluded that the main energy transfer from $Yb^{3+}$ to $Ho^{3+}$ was involved in the ground-state adsorption (GSA) process.

Y₂O₃:Eu_x (x = 0.005, 0.01, 0.02, 0.03, 0.05, 0.1 mol) phosphors are synthesized with different concentrations of Eu³⁺ ions by solvothermal method. The crystal structure, surface and optical properties of the Eu doped Y₂O₃ phosphors are investigated using X-ray diffraction (XRD), field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), and photoluminescence (PL) and photoluminescence excitation (PLE) analyses. From X-ray diffraction (XRD) results, the crystal structure of the Eu doped Y₂O₃ phosphor is found to be cubic. The maximum emission spectra of the Eu doped Y₂O₃ phosphors are observed at 0.05 mol Eu³⁺ concentration. The photoluminescence of 615 nm in the Eu doped Y₂O₃ phosphors is associated with ⁵D₀ → ⁷F₂ transition of Eu³⁺ ions. The decrease in emission intensity of 0.1 mol Eu doped Y₂O₃ is interpreted by concentration quenching. The International Commission on Illumination (CIE) coordinates of 0.05 mol Eu doped Y₂O₃ phosphor are X = 0.6547, Y = 0.3374.
