Crystal structure and photophysical response of Bi 3+ and Pr 3+ co-doped Li 3 Gd 3 Te 2 O
12 system was investigated for lighting and ratiometric temperature sensing applications.
The double substitution at the dodecahedral site was confirmed via Rietveld refinement and
Raman spectra analysis. Considering the full advantage of distinct and characteristic cyan
and orange emissions of Bi 3+ and Pr 3+, the emission tunability towards white region was
achieved by the proposed co-doping combination. The as-prepared Li 3 Gd 3 Te 2 O 12: Bi …
