In this work, a series of red emitting Lu3Te2Li3O12: Eu3+ phosphors were synthesized for the first time by high temperature solid state reaction. The structure was characterized by X-ray diffraction. The excitation spectra, emission spectra and CIE chromaticity coordinate were studied. The phosphors show strong red emission at 611 nm due to the 5D0-7F2 transition of Eu3+ ions. The optimal doping concentration of Eu3+ in LTL host is x = 0.5 due to the concentration quenching mechanism of dipole-dipole interaction. The CIE chromaticity coordinates of the LTL: 0.5Eu3++ phosphor is (0.644,0.355), and the purity of the color is up to 93.61%. The phosphor can be considered as a potential red-emitting candidate for near UV WLEDs.
