As is clear from FIG. 1, the phosphor shown by the curve a is a curve showing the characteristics of the conventional phosphor. The emission color is completely different from that of b. That is, in the conventional phosphor showing the y value of the curve b, the y value is less than 0.05, while the curve a
The maximum y value of the phosphor showing the y value reaches 0.087. It is clear that such a difference in light emission between these two types of phosphors is different between the phosphor having the curve a and the phosphor having the energy level serving as the emission center.
However, at present, it is difficult to theoretically analyze the difference and define the structure of the fluorescent body. Therefore, the present inventors can clearly and sufficiently distinguish from the conventional fluorescent substance (curve b).
The chloroborate having a y value of 0.06 or more and having a barium content in the composition of 50 mol% or less of the total of calcium, barium and europium was used as the phosphor of the present invention.
