The synthesis of oxyfluoride solid solutions with the composition (Ca1−xSrx)4Si2O7F2 is reported in this study. (Ca1−xSrx)4Si2O7F2 is found to form a solid solution within the entire composition range. Synthesis of Sr4Si2O7F2, which is the first compound in the Sr–Si–O–F system, can be regarded as one of the interesting results of this study. The Eu2+-activated (Ca1−xSrx)4Si2O7F2 solid solutions, except for Sr4Si2O7F2 exhibited photoluminescence under excitation at 300–450 nm at room temperature. The samples with x = 0.25–0.75 showed a broad red emission band with a peak around 630 nm, whereas the Ca4Si2O7F2:Eu2+ (x = 0) showed blue emission with a peak at 470 nm. Thus, the substitution of Sr for Ca in Ca4SiO7F2:Eu2+ changed the photoluminescence properties remarkably.
