Green-Emitting Phosphors and Devices Thereof

Green-emitting phosphors are useful in devices including an LED light source radiationally coupled and/or optically coupled to the phosphors, which are selected from [Ba.sub.1−a−bSr.sub.aCa.sub.b].sub.x[Mg,Zn].sub.y(UO.sub.2).sub.z([P,V]O.sub.4).sub.2(x+y+z)/3, where 0≤a≤1, 0≤b≤1, 0.75≤x≤1.25, 0.75≤y≤1.25, 0.75≤z≤1.25; and [Ba,Sr,Ca,Mg,Zn].sub.p(UO.sub.2).sub.q[P,V].sub.rO.sub.(2p+2q+5r)/2, where 2.5≤p≤3.5, 1.75≤q≤2.25, 3.5≤r≤4.5.
