A strong green emitting phosphor: K3Gd(PO4)2:Tb3+ for UV excited white light emi

K3Gd(PO4)2:Tb3+ phosphors are synthesized by the solid reaction method, and the phases and luminescence properties of the obtained phosphors are well characterized. The emission spectra of K3Gd(PO4)2:Tb3+ exhibit the typical emissions of Tb3+. Concentration quenching of Tb3+ is not observed in K3Gd(
