Activation of orthophosphates of the type ABPO4 with copper gives an efficient phosphor in some cases. The brightest phosphors found are SrLiPO,-Cu and BaLiPO,-Cu, with an emission peak (with 2537A excitation) at 4150 and 4600A, respectively. The properties of orthophosphates of the type ABPO, with two kinds of alkali earth or alkali metal ions, respectively, were also studied. X-ray diagrams of the compounds investigated are given.During the past few years several papers concerning copper-activated phosphors have been published. Uehara, Kobuke, and Masuda (1) described the preparation and luminescent properties of copperactivated calcium orthophosphates and related phosphors, and Wanmaker and Bakker (2) investigated modified strontium orthophosphates. The properties of copper-and tin-activated halophosphates were given in a paper published by Hunt and McKeag (3). Thorium phosphate activated with copper shows a yellow-orange emission when excited by 2537A radiation (4). In a subsequent patent the application of this phosphor in low-pressure mercury discharge lamps is given, with the addition of diammonium phosphate or phosphoric acid (5). Moreover, some papers were published concerning the more fundamental properties of this kind of phosphor. The configurational coordinate curve for the copper center in calcium orthophosphate was reported by Maeda (6). Uehara (7) has given a quantitative interpretation of the luminescent properties of the same phosphor.
