FLUORESCENT LAMP AND BACKLIGHT UNIT

摘要

A fluorescent lamp (20) includes a glass bulb (30) that has mercury enclosed therein, and a phosphor layer (32) formed on an inner side of the glass bulb (30). The phosphor layer (32) includes three types of phosphor particles, which are red phosphor particles (32R), green phosphor particles (32G) and blue phosphor particles (32B) that are excited by ultraviolet radiation to emit red light, green light and blue light respectively. The blue phosphor particles (32B) and green phosphor particles (32G) have a property of absorbing ultraviolet radiation with a wavelength of 313 nm.
