Abstract
In this article, we discuss the crystal chemistry and luminescence properties of activated silicate garnets. Our results indicate that the two previously reported end members of this family, and , form a complete solid solution, and primarily substitutes for in the octahedral sites with charge compensation by substitution in the dodecahedral sites. Within this solid solution, there is a continuous shift in the lowest energy excitation band and the emission band toward higher energy as the composition is varied between and .Keywords
