Luminescent material, luminescent material complex and method of manufacturing the same, fluorescent labeling reagent and method of manufacturing the same, and light emitting element

摘要

A light emitting element, includes: a luminescent material which is obtained from a plant-derived material as a raw material, and which contains therein a silicon oxide containing therein silicon having a content rate of 40 wt. % or more, and oxygen having a content rate of 40 wt. % or more as a principal component; a fluorescent substance adsorbed on a surface of the luminescent material; and an energy source for exciting the luminescent material and the fluorescent substance.
