Abstract: Photoluminescence characteristics and the energy transfer between Gd3+ and Eu2+ in BaLiF3 matrix have been investigated. Aseries of concentrations of Gd3+ ion with a fixed Eu2+concentration doped in BaLiF3:Gd3+, Eu2+ has been studied. When the doping concentration for Gd3+ was 0.3%, the system reached the highest energy transfer efficiency. Due to the competitive absorption for the Gd3+ and the Eu2+ ions in BaLiF3:Gd3+:Eu2+, when the doping concentration for Gd3+ ion exceeded 0.3%, the continuously increasing concentration of Gd3+ ions caused the competitive absorption ratio for Gd3+ increasing and the emission intensity of Eu2+ decreasing. The energy transfer processes were discussed, while the transfer probability was calculated to be 1.35×105s-1.
