Bi3+-Ce3+ energy transfer and luminescent properties of LuAG:Bi,Ce and YAG:Bi,Ce single crystalline films

► Bi- and Ce-doped single crystalline film phosphor grown by liquid phase epitaxy method from Bi2O3 flux. ► Energy transfer from Bi3+ to Ce3+ ions. ► Strong quenching of the Ce3+ luminescence by the Bi3+ co-dopant.
