| 20090236963 | Phosphor and Manufacturing Method Therefore, and Light Emission Device Using the Phosphor - To provide a phosphor having an emission spectrum with a broad peak in a range from green color to yellow color, having a broad and flat excitation band capable of using lights of broad range from near ultraviolet/ultraviolet to blue lights as excitation lights, and having excellent emission efficiency and luminance. The problem is solved by providing the phosphor expressed by a general composition formula MmAaBbOoNn:Z (where element M is one or more kinds of elements having bivalent valency, element A is one or more kinds of elements having tervalent valency, element B is one or more kinds of elements having tetravalent valency, O is oxygen, N is nitrogen, and element Z is one or more kinds of elements acting as the activator.), satisfying 4.0<(a+b)/m<7.0, a/m=0.5, b/a>2.5, n>o, n=2/3m+a+4/3b−2/3o, and having an emission spectrum with a peak wavelength of 500 nm to 650 nm when excited by light in a wavelength range from 300 nm to 500 nm. | 09-24-2009 |
