An inorganic NaMgSO4F fluoride material was prepared by the wet chemical method and studied for its photoluminescence (PL) and resonant-non-resonant energy transfer (RET and NORET) capabilities between Ce3+ → Tb3+, Ce3+ → Eu3+ and Ce3+ → Dy3+ rare earth ions. The Tb3+ emission for Ce3+ → Tb3+ transfers under ultraviolet (UV) wavelengths peaked at 491, 547, and 586 nm, for excitation at 308 nm due to 5D4 → 7FJ (J = 4, 5, 6) transitions. Eu emission spectra were observed at 440 nm (Eu2+), 593 nm and 616 nm (Eu3+) recorded for different concentrations of materials, whereas Dy3+ emission from Ce3+ → Dy3+ transfer under UV wavelengths peaked at 485 nm and 577 nm due to 4F9/2 → 6H15/2 and 6H13/2 transitions. The purpose of the present study is to understand the RET and NORET effects of Tb3+, Eu3+ and Dy3+ co-doping in a NaMgSO4F:Ce3+ luminescent material, which could be used as a green-emitting material for lamp phosphors.
