A method for treating a Mn-activated complex fluoride phosphor is provided wherein a preliminarily-prepared red phosphor of a Mn-activated complex fluoride represented by the following formula (1):
€ƒ€ƒ€ƒ€ƒ€ƒ€ƒ€ƒ€ƒ A 2 MF 6 :Mn€ƒ€ƒ€ƒ€ƒ€ƒ(1)
wherein M represents at least one tetravalent element selected from Si, Ti, Zr, Hf, Ge and Sn, A represents at least one alkali metal selected from Li, Na, K, Rb and Cs provided that at least Na and/or K is contained, is heated in a substantially oxygen atom-free gas but containing a fluorine atom at a temperature of at least 50°C. |
