Eu 3+ ‐doped cesium barium borate glass with the composition of Cs 2 O ·2 BaO ·3 B 2 O 3 was prepared by the conventional melt quenching method. The glass‐ceramic sample was obtained from the re‐crystallization of the as‐made glass to change the amorphous glass into a crystalline host. This reduces the Eu 3+ in glass to Eu 2+ ions resulting in a yellow‐emitting phosphor of Eu 2+ ‐activated CsBaB 3 O 6 . The samples were investigated by the XRD patterns and SEM micrograph, the optical absorption, the photoluminescence spectra, and decay curves. The as‐made glass has only Eu 3+ centers. Under the excitation of blue or near‐ UV light, Eu 2+ ‐doped CsBaB 3 O 6 presents yellow‐emitting color from the allowed inter‐configurational 4 f –5 d transition in the Eu 2+ ions. The maximum absolute luminescence quantum efficiencies of Eu 2+ ‐doped CsBaB 3 O 6 phosphor was measured to be 47% excited at 430 nm light at 300 K. By taking into account the efficient excitation in blue wavelength region, this new phosphor could be a potential yellow‐emitting phosphor for an application in white light‐emitting diodes fabricated with blue chips.
