Abstract The luminescence properties of GaBO3: Bi3+ have been studied. In contrast to other borates with calcite structure, GaBO3: Bi3+ shows a very efficient UV emission and a blue Stokes-shifted emission caused by an annihilation of the impurity-trapped excitons. The former is attributed to single Bi3+ ions in S6 sites, whereas the latter is related to bismuth defect centers which arise due to difference in the size of the Ga3+ and Bi3+ ions (0.645 A versus 1.02 A).
