<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a 258 phosphor of improved persistence characteristic, a composition containing the phosphor, and a luminescent device, an image display and a lighting system that use the phosphor. <P>SOLUTION: The phosphor is represented by the following formula (I): Eu<SB>2x</SB>Tm<SB>2y</SB>(Mg, Ca, Sr, Ba)<SB>2-2x-2y</SB>Si<SB>5</SB>X<SB>8</SB>(I). In the formula (I), X represents one or more kinds of element selected from the group consisting of nitrogen and oxygen, and x and y each represents a positive number meeting either of the following, (i) and (ii): (i) 0< x ≤0.02, 0.5< x/y <2; (ii) 0.0005≤ x <0.005, x + y <0.025. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2009,JPO&INPIT |
