PURPOSE:A complex halogenated fluorescent substance, suitable for a storage type radiologic image converter and thermofluorescent intensitometer, having a high stimulation emission brightness, and prepared by adding a specific rare earth element to a matrix comprising barium fluoride, a barium halide, etc. CONSTITUTION:(A) BaF2 and (B) a barium halide are incorporated with (C) one or more types of specific alkali metal fluorides and bi (tri) valent metal fluorides to form a solid solution matrix. The matrix is then activated with (D) one or more types of Eu, Ce and Tb to give a complex halide fluorescent substance of the composition formula [X is Cl, Br, etc.; MeI is Li or Na; MeII is Be, Ca, etc.; MeIII is Al, Ga, etc.; Ln is Eu, Ce or Tb; 0.90<=a<=1.05; 0<=b<=0.9; 0<=c<=1.2; 0<=d<= 0.03; and 10<-6=e<=0.03; b, c and d are not 0 at the same time].
