Light-emitting apparatus

摘要

A light emitting apparatus (1) capable of efficiently generating high luminance white light is provided. The present invention permits white light to be generated, without using low-emission efficiency white light emitters, by forming a light emitter layer 16 using a high-light emission efficiency blue light emitter and yellow light emitter, In this case, having at least a part of the blue light emitter particles 17 and at least a part of the yellow light emitter particles 18 exposed at a surface of the light emitter layer 16, respectively, allows both of such particles to be directly bombarded with electrons, thereby effecting a highly efficient electron excitation. Furthermore, the use of YAG or the like, as a yellow light emitter, which emits yellow light not only by electron excitation but also through photoexcitation by the blue light, permits the blue light to contribute to the emission of the yellow light, even when part of the blue light emitted by the blue light emitter particles, as it passes through the light emitter layer 16, is blocked by the yellow light emitter particles 18, whereby white light can be generated efficiently with a reduction in energy loss.
