High luminescence efficiency is key for the practical applications of phosphors.

We adopt the best fitted ideal polyhedron to characterize the octahedral distortion and found that the degree of distortion reaches its maximum at&nbsp;<em>y<\/em>&nbsp;= 0.2 and decreases with y deviating from 0.2. As a result, the composition with&nbsp;<em>y<\/em>&nbsp;= 0.2 shows the highest luminescence intensity. The composition dependence of the octahedral distortion coincides with that of the luminescence intensity, indicating that the luminescence properties of Ca<small><sub>3<\/sub><\/small>Al<small><sub>2\u2212<em>y<\/em><\/sub><\/small>Sc<small><sub><em>y<\/em><\/sub><\/small>Ge<small><sub>3<\/sub><\/small>O<small><sub>12<\/sub><\/small>:Cr<small><sup>3+<\/sup><\/small>&nbsp;are closely related to the octahedral distortion.
