To provide a phosphor having an emission characteristic such that a peak wavelength of light emission is in a range from 580 to 680 nm, and having a high emission intensity, and having a flat excitation band with high efficiency for excitation light in a broad wavelength range from ultraviolet to visible light (wavelength range from 250 nm to 550 nm). For example, Ca<SUB>3</SUB>N<SUB>2</SUB>(2N), AlN(3N), Si<SUB>3</SUB>N<SUB>4</SUB>(3N), Eu<SUB>2</SUB>O<SUB>3</SUB>(3N) are prepared, and after weighing and mixing a predetermined amount of each raw material, raw materials are fired at 1500 DEG C. for 6 hours, thus obtaining the phosphor including a product phase expressed by a composition formula CaAlSiN<SUB>3</SUB>:Eu and having an X-ray diffraction pattern satisfying a predetermined pattern. |
