The trivalent lanthanides have been broadly utilized as emitting centers in persistent luminescence (PersL) materials due to their wide emitting spectral range, which thus attract considerable attention over decades. However, the origin of the trivalent lanthanides\' PersL is still an open question, hindering the development of excellent PersL phosphors and their broad applications. Here, the PersL of 12 kinds of the trivalent lanthanides with the exception of La3+, Lu3+, and Pm3+is reported, and a mechanism of the PersL of the trivalent lanthanides in wide bandgap hosts is proposed. According to the mechanism, the excitons in wide bandgap materials transfer their recombination energy to the trivalent lanthanides that bind the excitons, followed by the generation of PersL. During the PersL process, the trivalent lanthanides as isoelectronic traps bind excitons, and the binding ability is not only related to the inherent arrangement of the 4f electrons of the trivalent lanthanides, but also to the extrinsic ligand field including anion coordination and cation substitution. Our work is believed to be a guidance for designing high-performance PersL phosphors.
