Resumo : The influence of lithium excess and calcination temperature on the luminescence properties of the LiAl5O8:Eu under VUV excitation was investigated. The presence of both broad bands and sharp peaks in the VUV and X-ray emission spectra suggests the presence of Eu2+, even in absence of reducing atmosphere in the synthesis. The VUV excitation spectra indicated a band gap of 8.5 eV while the UV excited one showed the Eu3+ charge transfer transition starting at 3.9 eV. These values indicate that Eu2+ is stable in this host since its ground state is below the Fermi level of the host (ca. 4.1 eV). The relation between the intensity of Eu2+ and Eu3+ emissions showed that the reduction is favored at higher temperatures and lower Li content, leading to the proposition of a reduction mechanism based on the incorporation of charge compensation defects formed in the aliovalent doping of Eu3+ in Li+ sites.
