Popis: The study of P-doped Ca2SiO4 (C2S) structure has demonstrated that the incorporation of P effectively stabilizes the high-temperature phases. In this work, we synthesize a series of (Ca2−x/2−yEuy□x/2) (Si1−xPx)O4 (0 ≤ x ≤ 0.20, 0.02 ≤ y ≤ 0.05) green-light emitting phosphors and discuss the influence of P concentration on the luminescence intensity and structural change of the host material. The phosphor is synthesized by a solid–state reaction and heated at 498 K for 6 h, and then at 1273 K for 8 h in air. Doping of Eu2+ is achieved by annealing the Eu2O3-containing materials at 1473 K for 3 h under a 90% N2–10% H2 reductive atmosphere. A phosphor with x = 0.04 and y = 0.03 shows the highest PL intensity, which is obviously higher than that of the P-free phosphor (x = 0) due to the structural change of the host material.
