✦ Synopsis
Recently prepared Ce 3 (SiS 4 ) 2 I exhibits a strong room temperature luminescence in the blue region of the visible spectrum associated to a Ce III -5d 1 PCe III -4f 1 electronic transition. In order to approach the emission mechanisms, the La 3؊x Ce x (SiS 4 ) 2 I family has been investigated by optical techniques at 6 and 300 K. At low temperature luminescence of the two crystallographically distinct cerium cations was evidenced along with an intrinsic luminescence of the lanthanum matrix. The in6uence of the halogenide on the optical properties has been studied through the substitution of iodine by chlorine and bromine which permits us to follow the increase in energy of the 4f+5d gap in the Cl < Br < I series.

Pure solid solutions \(\mathrm{Ca}_{3} \mathrm{Sn}_{2+x} \mathrm{Si}(\mathrm{Ge})_{1-x} \mathrm{Ga}_{2} \mathrm{O}_{12}\) with the garnet structure have been evidenced in the composition range \(0 \leq x \leq 0.95\). This implies that a part of the \(\mathrm{Sn}^{4+}\) cations (equal to \(x\) ) is l
