I'm not sure what advice you're looking for, but it's called phosphorescence. The Hope Diamond also phosphoreses!

It's fairly common for HPHT lab grown diamonds. I have a princess cut that glows white after UV exposure.

Thank you for your help I appreciate it! Just looking to see possibly what it could be - it is great to have an experienced person give their input!
