The Tb³⁺ or Eu³⁺-doped Lu₂Gd₁Ga₂Al₃O₁₂ phosphor were fabricated by funace at 1500 ℃ for 12 h using a solid state reaction. The XRD (X-ray diffraction_Panalytical X'Pert Pro) and FE-SEM (field emission scanning electron microscope) are measured to confirm the crystalline structure and surface morphology of the phosphor. The Tb³⁺-doped Lu₂Gd₁Ga₂Al₃O₁₂ phosphor emits the lights in 470~650 nm wavelength range due to transitions from ⁵D₄ to ⁷F_j. Therefore, it shows the green region in the CIE chromaticity diagram under both UV and X-rays excitations. The Eu³⁺-doped Lu₂Gd₁Ga₂Al₃O₁₂ phosphor emits the lights in 550~750 nm wavelength range because of ⁵D_i to ⁷F_j. The emission is confirmed to be in the red region using the CIE chromaticity diagram. The Tb³⁺ or Eu³⁺-doped Lu₂Gd₁Ga₂Al₃O₁₂ phosphor shows the characteristic f-f transition with a long decay time, which is about several milliseconds. They have the high efficiency of light emission for X-ray because of their high effective Z number (Z_eff = 58.5) and density. Therefore, they are very much promising phosphors for X-ray imaging application in medical fields.

The $SrGa_2S_4:Eu^{2+}$ green emitting phosphor has been studied as a luminous device for CRT (Cathode Ray Tube) or FED (Field Emission Display) and EL (Electroluminescence). This phosphor, also, is under noticed for LED (Lighting Emitting Diode) phosphor, which makes use of excitation characteristics of long wavelength region. The $SrGa_2S_4:Eu^{2+}$ phosphor was prepared generally conventional synthesis method using flux. However, this method needs high heat-treated temperature, long reaction time, complex process and harmful $H_2S$or $CS_2$ gas. In this works, therefore, we have synthesized $SrGa_2S_4:Eu^{2+}$ using SrS, $Ga_2S_3$, and EuS as starting materials, and the mixture gas of 5% H2/95% N2 was used to avoid the $H_2S$or $CS_2$. We investigated the luminescence characteristic of $SrGa_2S_4:Eu^{2+}$ phosphor prepared in various synthesis conditions, performed post-treatment and sieving process for application to LED.

Ba2-xSrxSiO4:Eu2+ phosphor particles with the high photoluminescence (PL) intensity under long wavelength ultraviolet (UV) were prepared by spray pyrolysis. The photoluminescence, morphological and crystalline characteristics of $Ba_{2-x.}Sr_{x.}SiO_4:Eu^{2+}$ phosphor particles prepared by spray pyrolysis were investigated. $Ba_{2-x.}Sr_{x.}SiO_4:Eu^{2+}$ phosphor particles prepared by spray pyrolysis had various colors from bluish green to yellow by changing the ratio of barium and strontium of the host material. In case of x=0, the main emission peak of $Ba_2SiO_4:Eu^{2+}$ phosphor was 500 nm. In case of x=2, the main emission peak of $Sr_2SiO_4:Eu^{2+}$ phosphor was 554nm. $Ba_{2-x.}Sr_{x.}SiO_4:Eu^{2+}$ phosphor particles obtained by spray pyrolysis had spherical shape and hollow structure. On the other hand, the post-treated $Ba_{2-x.}Sr_{x.}SiO_4:Eu^{2+}$ phosphor particles had large size and irregular shape. The $Ba_{1.488}Sr_{0.5}SiO_4:Eu_{0.012}{^{2+}}$ phosphor particles had the maximum PL intensity after post-treatment at temperature of $1300^{\circ}C$ for 3h under reduction atmosphere.

$SrSnO_3$ phosphor powders were synthesized with two different contents of activator ions $Eu^{3+}$ and $Tb^{3+}$ using the solid-state reaction method. The structural, morphological, and optical properties of the phosphors were investigated using X-ray diffractometry, field-emission scanning electron microscopy, and fluorescence spectrophotometry, respectively. All the phosphors showed a cubic structure, irrespective of the type and the content ratio of activator ions. For $Eu^{3+}$-doped $SrSnO_3$ phosphors, the intensity of the 620 nm red emission spectrum resulting from the $^5D_0{\rightarrow}^7F_2$ transition of $Eu^{3+}$ was stronger than that of the 595 nm orange emission signal due to the $^5D_0{\rightarrow}^7F_1$ transition in the range 0.01-0.05 mol of $Eu^{3+}$, but the ratio of the intensity was reversed in the range 0.10-0.20 mol of $Eu^{3+}$. The variation in the emission intensity indicates that the site symmetry of the $Eu^{3+}$ ions around the host crystal was changed from non-inversion symmetry to inversion. For the $Tb^{3+}$-doped $SrSnO_3$ phosphors under excitation at 281 nm, one strong green emission band at 550 nm and several weak bands were observed. These results suggest that the optimum red and green emission signals can be realized when the activator ion content for $Eu^{3+}$- or $Tb^{3+}$-doped $SrSnO_3$ phosphors is 0.20 mol and 0.15 mol, respectively.
