Dysprosium doped strontium silicate phosphor namely (Sr 2 SiO 4 :Dy 3+ ) was prepared by low-temperature solution combustion method using urea (CO(NH 2 ) 2 ) as a fuel. The material was characterized by powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), FT-IR, SEM and EDX. The average crystallite sizes was calculated by Scherer formula. Thermoluminescence study was carried out for the phosphor which showed single glow curve. The kinetic parameter were calculated by using Chen's glow curve method. Photoluminescence spectra revealed strong transition at 473 nm (blue), 571 nm (yellow) and weak transition at 645 nm (red). These peaks were assigned to transition 4 F 9/2 → 6 H 15/2 , 13/2 , 11/2 . CIE graph of Sr 2 SiO 4 :Dy 3+ phosphor is suitable for the generation of white light emission.
