The luminescence properties of β‐Ca 3 (PO 4 ) 2 :Tl + , β‐Ca 3 (PO 4 ) 2 :Bi 3+ , and α‐Sr 3 (PO 4 ) 2 :Sn 2+ are reinvestigated. The emission spectrum of β‐Ca 3 (PO 4 ) 2 :Tl + consists of two bands which can be ascribed to a Jahn‐Teller effect in the excited state of the Tl + ion. The emission spectrum of Bi 3+ ‐activated β‐Ca 3 (PO 4 ) 2 shows vibrational structure. The 3 P 0 emission of the Sn 2+ ion in α‐Sr 3 (PO 4 ) 2 can only be observed at very low temperatures. The trap depth amounts to 23 cm −1 .
