— Thin films of Ce‐activated SrGa 2 S 4 were prepared by combining electron‐beam evaporation of Ce‐doped SrS with direct evaporation of Ga 2 S 3 . With respect to the stoichiometry of SrGa 2 S 4 films, a Ga 2 S 3 /SrS flux ratio in the 60–100 range was found empirically to give the best results for a substrate temperature of 460°C. Photoluminescence and decay characteristics of SrGa 2 S 4 :Ce films were investigated as a function of Ce concentration. The results indicate that increase in Ce concentration from 0.2 to 6 mol% is accompanied by a marked increase in both the cerium absorption and decay rate, whereas the emission peaks remain unchanged with cerium doping. A possible reason for the observed effects is discussed.
