Abstract : Rare earth doped/codoped phosphors have been extensively studied for different types of applications based on their intense luminescence features. For this, researchers have tried to choose the inorganic host matrices having both a low phonon cut-off frequency and a high refractive index. Many articles have been published on oxide based phosphor materials, but due to their high cut-off phonon frequency, use of these materials is restricted for optical based applications. This is why additional research has been carried out on fluoride based host materials because of their low phonon frequencies, low composition degradation, and high quantum efficiency. In this paper, the authors review the rare earth fluoride based host nano- and micromaterials for different applications and discuss possible mechanisms.
