YAlO3 and LaAlO3 are both oxides used as matrices in optical applications. Their mutual solid solubility is kinetically dependent, especially in a polycrystalline form. We prepared La1–xYxAlO3(x=0–0.65) samples doped with 5 at.% of Eu3+ in the A-site. The samples were prepared by Spark Plasma Sintering from powders synthetised by a reverse co-precipitation method. The single-phase samples were obtained up to a composition of La0.7Y0.25Eu0.05AlO3, with a higher yttrium doping level, a mixture of Y-rich and La-rich perovskite-type phases was present. The La/Y substitution had an influence on a shift in the top of the valence band which influenced the excitation spectra. In photoluminescence and radioluminescence measurements, the Eu3+ local site symmetry changes were manifested by the change in intensity. The increasing content of Y3+ caused a slight acceleration of the PL decay of the Eu3+ photoluminescence and an increase in the integral intensity of radioluminescence spectra.
