A novel blue phosphor based on phosphate host matrix, KSrPO4 doped with Eu2+, was prepared by solid state reaction. The phosphor invariably emits blue luminescence with a peak wavelength at 424nm under ultraviolet excitation at 360nm. Eu2+-doped KSrPO4 phosphors show higher thermally stable luminescence which was found to be better than commercially available Y3Al5O12:Ce3+ phosphor at temperature higher than 225°C.
