Single crystals of double molybdates KRE(MoO 4 ) 2 (RE = Ce and Pr) have been prepared from high‐temperature melts by a facile and effective fluoride‐assisted method, and investigated by XRD, FTIR and photoluminescence (PL) spectroscopy. The results showed that the molar ratio of K/Mo in the molten solution play an important role in controlling content of the crystalline products. The crystallization fields of KCe(MoO 4 ) 2 has been found avoiding oxides admixtures. Both tetragonal scheelite‐related crystal structures have been established by means of single crystal X‐Ray diffraction. Structural motif of KPr(MoO 4 ) 2 has been established for the first time, while KCe(MoO 4 ) 2 has been reinvestigated and its crystal structure data have been refined. The excitation and emission spectra of KPr(MoO 4 ) 2 have been discussed in a light of energy transfer from a molybdate host.
