This paper reports the spectroscopic properties of phosphates KLuP2O7, Sr9Sc(PO4)7, K3Lu(PO4)2, doped with Pr3+ ions. Photoluminescence (PL) spectra under selective excitation with UV photons, PL excitation spectra, and decay kinetics of pulsed cathodoluminescence are studied. Recordings of luminescence spectra were done with non-irradiated samples and after their irradiation with fast electrons (E = 10 MeV) or fast reactor neutrons. Three typical channels of electronic excitations radiative relaxation have been identified: interconfigurational d-f transitions, intraconfigurational f-f transitions in Pr3+ ions and luminescence associated with defects. After irradiation, significant changes in the luminescence characteristics were observed: a redistribution of the intensity of the intraconfigurational d-f transitions, an increase in the luminescence yield of defects and the manifestation of new emission centers. The formation of radiation-induced defects presumably occurs due to the formation of complexes consisting of phosphorus and oxygen atoms.
