Sr8MgCe(PO4)7:Eu2+,Mn2+ phosphor with whitlockite‐type structure was prepared by a combustion‐assisted solid‐state reaction. The crystal structure and luminescence properties were investigated. Under UV radiation, Sr8MgCe(PO4)7 host exhibits a violet‐blue emission band from Ce3+ ions. When Eu2+/Mn2+ are doped into the host, the samples excited with 270 nm UV radiation present multicolor emissions due to the energy transfer (ET) from Ce3+ to Eu2+/Mn2+. The emitting color of Sr8MgCe(PO4)7:Eu2+ can be tuned from violet‐blue to yellow‐green, whereas Sr8MgCe(PO4)7:Mn2+ can emit red light. Under excitation with long wavelength at 360 nm, Sr8MgCe(PO4)7:Eu2+ phosphor shows a broadband emission from 390 to 700 nm, which is attributed to the 4f65d1→4f7 transition of Eu2+ without the contribution from Ce3+ emission. Tunable full‐color emitting light can be achieved in the Eu2+ and Mn2+‐codoped Sr8MgCe(PO4)7 phosphor by ETEu–Mn through control of the levels of doped Eu2+ and Mn2+ ions. These results suggest that Sr8MgCe(PO4)7:Eu2+,Mn2+ phosphor has potential applications in NUV chip pumped white LEDs.
