Provided are an alkaline earth metal silicate-based phosphor which is a compound represented by Formula 1 below, and a white light-emitting device (LED) including the same. (M11-x-yAxBy)aMgbM2cOdZe Formula 1 wherein, M1 is one selected from the group consisting of Ba, Ca, and Sr; M2 is at least one selected from Si or Ge; A and B are each independently one selected from the group consisting of Eu, Ce, Mn, Pr, Nd, Sm, Gd, Tb, Dy, Ho, Er, Tm, Yb, Bi, Sn, and Sb; Z is at least one selected from the group consisting of a monovalent or divalent element, H, and N; and 0<x<1, 0<=y<=1, 6.3<a<7.7, 0.9<b<1.1, 3.6<c<4.4, 14.4<d<17.6, 14.4<d+e<17.6, and 0<=e<=0.18. The alkaline earth metal silicate-based phosphor has a broad excitation wavelength range, and thus, both a UV-LED and a blue LED can be used as excitation sources for white LEDs. Furthermore, the total emission area of an emission spectrum of the alkaline earth metal silicate-based phosphor is greater than that of a common phosphor, thereby achieving better emission efficiency.
