A series of Ca₈MgBi(PO₄)₇∶Ce³⁺, Tb³⁺ phosphors with whitlockite-type structure and adjustable color were prepared by the high-temperature solid-phase method. The phase composition, microstructure, and luminescence properties were studied by X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscope (SEM), and fluorescence spectroscopy. X-ray diffraction results confirmed doping a small amount of Ce³⁺ and Tb³⁺ did not change the crystal structure of the matrix. The energy transfer between Ce³⁺-Tb³⁺ was confirmed by the fluorescence spectrum and fluorescence lifetime curve. The energy transfer mechanism was quadrupole-quadrupole interaction, and the energy transfer efficiency could reach 81%. The emission color of the series Ca₈MgBi(PO₄)₇∶0.08Ce³⁺, yTb³⁺ phosphors can be adjusted from blue light to green light by changing the doping concentrations of Tb³⁺, realizing the controllable emission color change.
