Both photoluminescence and the long-phosphorescent properties for $SrAl_2O_4$ : Eu$^{+2}$, $Dy^{+3}$ phosphor powder synthesized by the solid phase reaction were investigated as a function of $B_2O_3$ composition (0-10 wt%). The highest emission wavelength (520nm) of photoluminescence spectra was not affected by $B_2O_3$concentration. The highest emission intensity was obtained by the concentration of 3 wt% $B_2O_3$.After the removal of the Xenon lamp excitation (360nm), also, the excellent long-phosphorescent property of the phosphors was obtained by the concentration of 3 wt% $B_2O_3$ although the decay times for all phosphors decreased exponentially.
