Luminescence and excitation spectra of NaGdF4:Tb3+, Eu3+have been investigated. The luminescence spectrum consists of the luminescence lines originating from the f–f transition of Tb3+and Eu3+ions. In the excitation spectrum for the luminescence line of Eu3+ions at 614nm, excitation bands arising from the f–d transition of Tb3+ions are observed in the vacuum ultraviolet (VUV) spectral region ranging from 160 to 210nm. It is found that, by replacing Gd3+with Y3+, the intensities of the luminescence lines from Eu3+ions weaken compared to those from Tb3+ions. The luminescence of Eu3+ions is found to weaken with decreasing temperature. On the basis of the present results, we discuss the energy transfer process in NaGdF4:Tb3+, Eu3+under the VUV excitation.
