A novel orange emitting long afterglow phosphor Ca3Si2O7:Eu2 was prepared successfully via a traditional high temperature solid-state reaction method. The co-doping of Tm3 , Dy3 and Er3 ions into Ca3Si2O7:Eu2 separately can increase the trap density and/or produce new traps with suitable depth. They can enhance the brightness of afterglow and prolong the afterglow duration significantly. The duration of Eu2 solely doped and Eu2 , Tm3 co-doped Ca3Si2O7 phosphors can last 100 s and more than 15 min, respectively. Both the samples co-doped by Dy3 and Er3 can last more than 10 min. The mechanism of afterglow was discussed briefly.
