“…In the past several decades, lanthanide‐doped inorganic luminescent phosphors have undergone rapid development on account of their wide range of applications, such as light‐emitting diodes (LEDs), vacuum fluorescent displays, cathode ray tubes, fluorescent lamps, plasma display panels, X‐ray imaging scintillators, infrared quantum counter detectors, field‐emission displays (FEDs), etc . Having many advantages, e.g., high efficiency, low cost, long lifetime, and environmental friendliness, these phosphors, such as silicates, phosphates, and borates, have attracted extensive attention worldwide . Generally, two or more phosphors are intermingled to meet the demands of white light emission in the practical applications.…”
