The invention relates to a rare earth element phosphate (Ln), where Ln is either at least one rare earth element selected from cerium and terbium, or lanthanum in combination with at least one of the above two rare earth elements, having a crystalline structure of the rhabdophane type or of the monazite type with a lithium content of 300 ppm at most. The phosphate is obtained by the precipitation of a rare earth element chloride at a constant pH lower than 2, and then calcining and redispersing the same in hot water. The invention also relates to a phosphor obtained by calcining the phosphate at at least 1000°C.
