Abstract: Abstract: The paper presents the results of the study on luminescence and electronic excitations in Li6Gd(BO3)3 single crystals. The optical and luminescence spectroscopy with a sub-nanosecond time resolution upon selective photoexcitation in the energy range from 3.0 to 650 eV was used to investigate in detail the luminescence of both the Gd3þ host ions and Ce3þ impurity ions as well as the processes of energy transfer between them. The intrinsic ultraviolet emission at 3.95–3.97 eV due to 6Pj-8S7=2 transitions in the Gd3þ host ion and the fast luminescence at 2.8–3.0 eV due to 5d-4f1 dipole-allowed transitions in the Ce3þ impurity ion were studied upon excitations hrough the intracenter, charge transfer, bandto-band, and inner-shell transitions. The specificity of the energy transfer upon excitation of photoluminescence in the energy range of absorption of the inner shells of different atoms of the crystal, as well as in the energy region of the giant resonance of 4d–4f transitions was revealed. On the basis of the experimental data, the bandgap Eg¼9.3 eV, the minimum energy of the 5d-4f1 and charge transfer transitions were determined. The expected positions of the ground states of the 4fn and 4fn15d levels of trivalent lanthanide ions as well as the 4fnþ1 and 4fn5d levels of divalent ions were calculated for all the lanthanide ions in Li6Gd(BO3)3 host crystal.
