Tb3+doped alkaline earth lanthanum tantalates with the B-site-ordered double perovskite-type structure (AA′)[BB′]O6(namely, (CaLa1–xTbx)[CaTa]O6(CLTO:Tb3+) and Ba2[La1–xTbxTa]O6(BLTO:Tb3+) withx= 0.01, 0.10) were prepared, and their Tb3+photoluminescence (PL) properties were examined and explained based on the occupied crystal sites (A or B sites). The locations of the Tb3+activators were elucidated by analyzing powder X-ray diffraction patterns and X-ray absorption near edge structure at the Tb LIIIedge. Tb3+ions are located at A sites in CLTO:Tb3+and at B sites in BLTO:Tb3+as indicated in the nominal compositions. Both CLTO:Tb3+and BLTO:Tb3+exhibited intense PL excitation (PLE) peaks in the UV region due to the 4f–5d excitation for Tb3+. The PLE peak of Tb3+in BLTO:Tb3+showed a marked red-shift compared to that in CLTO:Tb3+primarily because of the larger crystal fields at the B sites than at the A sites. The main PL peaks associated with the 4f–4f transitions from5D4to7F5states are also influenced by the crystal field, and the splitting of the PL peaks for Tb3+at the B sites in BLTO:Tb3+is more pronounced than that at the A sites in CLTO:Tb3+. In addition, owing to a downshift of the Tb 5d orbitals, the PL in the blue region derived from5D3–7FJtransitions is quenched for Tb3+in BLTO:Tb3+.
