This contribution is devoted to the new ytterbium-doped alkali metal lutetium double phosphates and their structural and spectroscopic characterisations. The absorption, emission and excitation spectra have been measured at 4, 10 and 293 K in the VUV to IR range. The results have been compared with the analogous yttrium phosphates. The luminescence spectra of the double phosphates have been recorded using various excitation lines, including the synchrotron radiation. The low temperature absorption and emission spectra in the region of the ²F_7/2 → ²F_5/2 transition together with the IR spectra have been used to assign the electronic and vibronic components. Detailed analysis of the Yb³⁺-doped sodium lutetium double phosphates has been performed to determine the energy levels in these hosts and to compare their optical behaviour with analogous sodium yttrium double phosphates. The emission and excitation spectra have been investigated using synchrotron radiation and the origin of the emission has been analysed proving that the emission occurs from the charge transfer state.
