The solution combustion method was employed to prepare Al4B2O9 doped with M ions. The synthesized aluminum borates were subjected to phase analysis using X-ray diffraction, while their photoluminescence properties were evaluated using a spectrofluorometer. Under excitation at 352 nm, Al4B2O9:Dy3+ exhibited emission peaks at 484, 578, and 701 nm. Similarly, when excited at 402 nm, Al4B2O9:Sm3+ emitted light at 563, 599, 645, and 702 nm. Finally, upon excitation at 238 nm, Al4B2O9:Tb(3+ )emitted light at 489, 544, 588, and 622 nm.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessluminescenceX-ray diffractioninorganic boraterare-earth ionsArticle10.1007/s10812-024-01675-22-s2.0-8518170488713756Q4137290WOS:001137712700003N/A
