The purpose of this study was to investigate the photoluminescence properties of Bi3+-activated Sr3B2O6. Pure Sr3B2O6 and Bi3+-doped Sr3B2O6 were synthesized by a solution combustion method. The phase and photoluminescence analyses of the borates that were synthesized were determined by using X-ray diffraction and a spectrofluorometer respectively at room temperature. It was observed that the synthesized Bi3+-doped Sr3B2O6 emitted blue light (441 nm) upon excitation with 366 nm. Finally, the Stokes shift of Sr3B2O6:Bi3+ was calculated and found to be 4646 cm–1.
