Yb3+ doped LaSi3N5 phosphors have been prepared by solid-state synthesis in a high temperature furnace directly coupled to a glove box. The charge transfer (CT) band of Yb3+ in LaSi3N5 was observed at an unusually low energy of 3.1 eV. Excitation of this CT band results in f–f emission of Yb3+ at 1.2 eV, which could m…
