Photo-induced luminescence intensity degradation in red-emitting Tb3Ga5O12:Eu3+ (TGG:Eu3+) phosphor is observed and studied using x-ray diffraction measurement, photoluminescence (PL) analysis, PL excitation spectroscopy, and PL decay analysis. The red-emitting TGG:Eu3+ phosphor exhibits remarkable degradation in the PL intensity under weak UV light (λ 350 nm) light. The luminescence decay dynamics measured by excitation at λex = 355 and 266 nm suggest that the present degradation/recovery processes are caused by the electron traps formed in the TGG:Eu3+ phosphor. The Tb3+ emission in TGG shows the essentially same degradation characteristics as those observed in the TGG:Eu3+ phosphor. The present lumin...
