Direct white light emitting phosphors play a significant role in the display industry due to their ability to improve the quality, efficiency, and versatility of lighting sources used in most of the displays. The currently investigated phosphor SrZr2CaLa2O8:Eu3+ was prepared by a conventional solid‐state reaction method. It has been observed that the stoichiometric ratio of all precursors plays an important role in determining the characteristics of the final phosphor. From X‐ray diffraction (XRD) analysis, the phosphor was observed to have a hexagonal phase and a crystal size of ~28 nm. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) observations revealed a cluster of rod‐like structures with an average diameter of ~0.2 μm. The excitation peak maximum observed at 280 nm is due to charge transfer between Eu3+‐O2− ions. The energy transitions 7F0 → 5L6 and 7F0 → 5D2 are responsible for the appearance of other excitation peaks at ultraviolet (UV) (395 nm), blue (~467 nm), green (~540 nm), orange (~590 nm), and red (~627 nm) attributed to 5D0 → 7FJ (J = 0–4) transitions of europium ion (Eu3+). The Commercial International de I'Eclairage (CIE) chromaticity coordinates were estimated to be (0.37, 0.0.33) and (0.67, 0.33) for the emissions corresponding to 395 and 590 nm, respectively. The characteristic emissions of Eu3+ ions allow this novel phosphor to be used to generate direct white light in light‐emitting diodes (LEDs), which is otherwise difficult to achieve in single‐component systems.
