【発明の属する技術分野】
本発明は、例えばプラズマディスプレイ等に用いられる蛍光体の塗布状態を検査するため、カラービデオカメラを用いたパネル画質検査装置の色度輝度測定における校正方式に関するものである。
【0002】
【従来の技術】
従来技術の例えば、プラズマディスプレイの蛍光体塗布状態を検査するためにカラービデオカメラを用いたパネル画質検査装置のカラービデオカメラ受光特性を校正する方式について図3を使用して説明する。
図3(a)は測定対象物の蛍光体塗布状態を検査する場合のパネル画質検査装置のカラービデオカメラ受光特性を校正する際の主要機器接続図を示したもので、図3(b)は前記校正終了後の測定対象物の蛍光体塗布状態を検査する際の主要機器接続図を示したものである。
【0003】
11は測定対象物、例えば、プラズマディスプレイで、12は前記測定対象物11の蛍光体塗布状態を、蛍光体を発光させて撮像するカラービデオカメラで、13は前記同様測定対象物11を発光させて前記測定対象物11の色度と輝度を測定する色度輝度測定器で、14はパネル画質検査装置である。前記カラービデオカメラ12と色度輝度測定器13は前記測定対象物11の複数の所定検査位置に正対するように配置される。
【0004】
測定対象物11、例えばプラズマディスプレイ全体面を赤色(以下、Rと表記する)、緑色(以下、Gと表記する)、青色(以下、Bと表記する)、白色(以下、Wと表記する)と順次発光させ、各色発光時の色度(x、y)、輝度(Y)を色度輝度測定器13にて測定し、該測定結果をパネル画質検査装置14へ出力する。また、同時にカラービデオカメラ12にて、測定対象物11の各色発光時の状態を受光して光を映像信号に変換してR、G、Bの映像信号としてパネル画質検査装置14へ出力する。
【0005】
ここで、色度(x、y)、輝度(Y)と、色の三刺激値(X、Y、Z)との間に数1に示す関係式が成り立つことが知られている。

パネル画質検査装置14では、前記測定対象物11の各色発光時の色度輝度測定器13からの色度、輝度情報と、同様に各色発光時の状態をカラービデオカメラ12で受光して得られるR、G、Bの映像信号のレベル情報とから以下の処理を行う。
【0009】
各色発光時に色度輝度測定器13で測定した実際の色度(x、y)、輝度(Y)情報を、数1の式を変形して代入し、実際の三刺激値(X、Y、Z)を求める。
即ち、
測定対象物11が赤色発光時の色度輝度測定器13で測定した実際の色度(x、y)、輝度(Y)情報を、数1の式を変形して代入し、三刺激値(Xr、Yr、Zr)をパネル画質検査装置14で計算処理にて求める。同様に、
測定対象物11が緑色発光時の色度輝度測定器13で測定した実際の色度(x、y)、輝度(Y)情報を、数1の式を変形して代入し、三刺激値(Xg、Yg、Zg)をパネル画質検査装置14で計算処理にて求める。同様に、
測定対象物11が青色発光時の色度輝度測定器13で測定した実際の色度(x、y)、輝度(Y)情報を、数1の式を変形して代入し、三刺激値(Xb、Yb、Zb)をパネル画質検査装置14で計算処理にて求める。同様に、
測定対象物11が白色発光時の色度輝度測定器13で測定した実際の色度(x、y)、輝度(Y)情報を、数1の式を変形して代入し、三刺激値(Xw、Yw、Zw)をパネル画質検査装置14で計算処理にて求める。
【0010】
次に、各色発光時のカラービデオカメラ12の出力映像信号R、G、Bレベルをパネル画質検査装置14で保存する。
測定対象物11が赤色発光時のカラービデオカメラ12の出力映像信号レベルをR、G、B成分毎にRr、Gr、Brとし、
測定対象物11が緑色発光時のカラービデオカメラ12の出力映像信号レベルをR、G、B成分毎にRg、Gg、Bgとし、
測定対象物11が青色発光時のカラービデオカメラ12の出力映像信号レベルをR、G、B成分毎にRb、Gb、Bbとし、
測定対象物11が白色発光時のカラービデオカメラ12の出力映像信号レベルをR、G、B成分毎にRw、Gw、Bwとし、パネル画質検査装置14で保存する。
【0011】
前述で求めた各色発光時の三刺激値とカラービデオカメラ12の出力映像信号レベルを数2の式を変形して代入することにより夫々の場合の所定定数行列Ar、Ag、Ab、Awを、更に二乗平均処理をして1つの所定定数行列Aを求める。ここまでが校正段階である。
【0012】
以降は測定段階に入る。該測定段階では、図3(b)に示すように色度輝度測定器13をパネル画質検査装置14から接続を外して、各色発光時のカラービデオカメラ12の出力であるR、G、Bの映像信号レベルと前述で求めた所定定数行列Aとから、パネル画質検査装置14内で前記数2の式により三刺激値を求め、該三刺激値から前記数1の式により色度(x、y)輝度(Y)を計算処理で求め、該色度輝度値から前記同一測定対象物11の複数箇所の蛍光体塗布状態のムラを検査したり、複数枚の検査をするようにしていた(文献公知発明に係るものではない。)。
【0013】
【発明が解決しようとする課題】
前述の従来技術では、パネル画質検査装置でカラービデオカメラの出力映像信号R、G、Bを元に計算処理して求める色度輝度測定において、該色度輝度測定値のバラツキが大きい場合があり、その結果、蛍光体塗布状態の検査で良品を不良品と判定したり、不良品を良品と判定したりする虚報が発生する場合がある。本発明は前記計算処理における色度輝度測定精度を向上させる校正方式を確立し、虚報の少ないパネル画質検査装置を提供することを目的とする。
【0014】
【課題を解決するための手段】
本発明は上記の目的を達成するため、カラービデオカメラの出力映像信号レベルR、G、Bと所定定数行列Aとにより三刺激値を求める測定段階前の、前記所定定数行列Aを求める校正段階において、各色毎に色度分布上の所定の範囲を複数ポイントで表わし、該複数ポイントを元に色度輝度測定時の所定定数行列Aを求めるようにしたものである。
【0015】
【発明の実施の形態】
従来技術の色度輝度測定における色度輝度データのバラツキ発生の要因は、前記数2の行列式の所定定数行列A求める計算処理において、該所定定数行列Aに含まれている誤差が起因しているもので、該誤差を小さくすることで、色度輝度測定の色度輝度データのバラツキが抑えられることになる。
【0016】
本発明の一実施例として、数1の行列式の所定定数行列Aを算出する手段を改善する方法について説明する。
図4(a)はカラービデオカメラ12の受光特性を、図4(b)は色度輝度測定器13の受光特性を夫々示したものである。同図をみると夫々の特性が近似していることがわかる。また、プラズマディスプレイ等の表示器は、図5に示すように赤(R)、緑(G)、青(B)の各色の発光特性を混色して、色表示表現を行うため、赤(R)、緑(G)、青(B)及び白色と発光させて色度輝度変化を測定することは表示器の評価や検査を行う手段として有効である。
【0017】
そこで、従来、測定対象物11を赤(R)、緑(G)、青(B)及び白色と発光させて、夫々の発光時に対応した1つの所定定数行列Aを計算処理で求めて、三刺激値を求めていたが、夫々の赤(R)に対する所定定数行列Ar、緑(G)に対する所定定数行列Ag、青(B)に対する所定定数行列Ab及び白色に対する所定定数行列Awを夫々個別に計算処理で求める上で、各色の色度分布の代表の1ポイントから求めるのではなく、各色毎に複数ポイント例えば5ポイントの色度分布から前述の各色対応の所定定数行列Aを求めるようにすることで、前述の図4(a)に示すカラービデオカメラ12の受光特性を図4(b)に示す色度輝度測定器13の受光特性により近似させることができる。
図2のように色の色度は色度xと色度y軸上に図のように分布することが知られている。図2のように赤色、緑色、青色の色度が分布し、そのほぼ中央に白色の色度が分布している。6は緑色周辺の色度分布、7は青色周辺の色度分布、8は赤色周辺の色度分布、9は白色周辺の色度分布を夫々示している。
【0018】
本発明では、前記各色の色度周辺分布の複数ポイントを前記所定定数行列A算出の対象とするようにしたものである。
例えば、緑色発光の場合に対して、緑色に対する所定定数行列Agを算出する場合について図1を使って説明する。なお、他の赤色、青色、白色の発光の場合も同様である。図1(a)は測定対象物11を少しずつ違う緑色に発光させた場合の波長の変化を示したもので、図1(b)は同図(a)を色度分布に表現したものである。色度変化は図1(a)に示すように測定対象物11の発光特性における主波長成分での変化によるものがほとんどであると考えられる。図1(b)で、同図が示すように所定の領域内即ち緑色周辺の色度分布6の範囲での変化に限定する。図1(b)に示す色度分布(x、y)において、ポイント1〜5は同図(a)の波長変化に対応している。例えばポイント5が緑色の代表的なポイントで、ポイント2が緑色の中でも最も赤色がかった緑色で、ポイント3は最も青色がかった緑色である。
【0019】
次に、各色対応の所定定数行列Aを求める方法について説明する。
例えば、緑色発光の場合について図1の各ポイントに対応して測定対象物11の図示しないドライブ回路においてR、G、Bの発光割合を制御し測定対象物11を発光させる。その状態を従来技術と同様に色度輝度測定器13で実際の色度輝度を測定し、該色度(x、y)輝度(Y)データをパネル画質検査装置14へ入力する。また、カラービデオカメラ12で撮像して映像信号レベルR、G、Bをパネル画質検査装置へ入力する。
【0020】
パネル画質検査装置14での計算処理方法は従来技術で説明した内容と同じで、上記色度輝度測定器13からの実測色度(x、y)輝度(Y)データとカラービデオカメラ12からの映像信号レベルR、G、Bを前記数1と数2の式を用いて以下の計算処理をパネル画質検査装置14で実施する。
ポイント1の三刺激値Xr1、Yr1、Zr1とカラービデオカメラ12出力の映像信号レベルをR、G、B成分毎にしたRr1、Gr1、Br1と
ポイント2の三刺激値Xr2、Yr2、Zr2とカラービデオカメラ12出力の映像信号レベルをR、G、B成分毎にしたRr2、Gr2、Br2と
ポイント3の三刺激値Xr3、Yr3、Zr3とカラービデオカメラ12出力の映像信号レベルをR、G、B成分毎にしたRr3、Gr3、Br3と
ポイント4の三刺激値Xr4、Yr4、Zr4とカラービデオカメラ12出力の映像信号レベルをR、G、B成分毎にしたRr4、Gr4、Br4と
ポイント5の三刺激値Xr5、Yr5、Zr5とカラービデオカメラ12出力の映像信号レベルをR、G、B成分毎にしたRr5、Gr5、Br5とから各ポイントでの前記所定定数Ar1〜5を求め、更に該所定定数行列Ar1〜5の二乗平均処理をして最終的な赤色での所定定数行列Arを求めることで、即ち、測定対象物11の蛍光体塗布状態の違いで生じる赤色発光でも少しずつ違う赤色発光することを近似するために、赤色の色度の複数ポイントで範囲を限定して測定対象物11を発光させ、色度輝度測定器13で実測したと同じように色度、輝度データが得られるようにカラービデオカメラ12の受光特性の校正を行うことができる。
【0021】
このようにして、図4(a)に示すカラービデオカメラ12の受光特性を図4(b)に示す色度輝度測定器13の受光特性の赤色、緑色、青色の限定された波長領域に極力近づけるべく前記所定定数行列A求めて色度輝度測定をすることで、色度輝度測定精度を向上させることができる。
【0022】
【発明の効果】
従来、色度輝度測定にバラツキがあり、例えばプラズマディスプレイ等の表示器の生産ロット毎や虚報率が高くなってきたりする毎に、従来の校正をし直す必要があり、該校正をしない場合は自動検査において虚報が多発していたが、本発明によれば前述の校正し直しの必要性がなく、色度輝度測定においてバラツキが抑えられ、色度輝度測定による蛍光体の塗布状態自動検査における虚報発生率を大幅に低下させ、自動検査の信頼性を向上することができる。

TECHNICAL FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a calibration method in chromaticity / luminance measurement of a panel image quality inspection apparatus using a color video camera for inspecting a coating state of a phosphor used for a plasma display or the like.
[0002]
[Prior art]
A method of calibrating a light receiving characteristic of a color video camera of a panel image quality inspection apparatus using a color video camera in order to inspect a phosphor application state of a plasma display, for example, will be described with reference to FIG.
FIG. 3A is a main device connection diagram for calibrating the light receiving characteristics of a color video camera of a panel image quality inspection apparatus for inspecting a phosphor application state of a measurement object, and FIG. FIG. 3 is a connection diagram of main devices when inspecting a phosphor application state of a measurement object after completion of the calibration.
[0003]
Reference numeral 11 denotes a measurement target, for example, a plasma display. Reference numeral 12 denotes a color video camera which captures an image of a phosphor application state of the measurement target 11 by emitting a phosphor. A chromaticity / luminance measuring device for measuring the chromaticity and luminance of the object 11 to be measured, and 14 is a panel image quality inspection device. The color video camera 12 and the chromaticity / luminance measuring device 13 are arranged so as to face a plurality of predetermined inspection positions of the measurement object 11.
[0004]
The object 11 to be measured, for example, the entire surface of the plasma display is red (hereinafter referred to as R), green (hereinafter referred to as G), blue (hereinafter referred to as B), and white (hereinafter referred to as W). Are sequentially emitted, and the chromaticity (x, y) and luminance (Y) at the time of emission of each color are measured by the chromaticity / luminance measuring device 13, and the measurement result is output to the panel image quality inspection device 14. At the same time, the color video camera 12 receives the state of the object to be measured 11 when each color emits light, converts the light into a video signal, and outputs it to the panel image quality inspection device 14 as R, G, B video signals.
[0005]
Here, it is known that the relational expression shown in Expression 1 is established between the chromaticity (x, y), the luminance (Y), and the tristimulus values (X, Y, Z) of the color.
[0006]
(Equation 1)
Figure 2004120393
The determinant of the relationship shown in Formula 2 is established between the R, G, and B video signal level values output from the color video camera 12 and the color tristimulus values (X, Y, Z). It has been known. Here, A in the equation (2) is a predetermined constant matrix for correcting the light receiving characteristics of the three colors of the color video camera 12, and is a predetermined matrix as shown in the equation (3).
Figure 2004120393
It is known to be represented by a 3 × 3 constant matrix.
[0007]
(Equation 2)
Figure 2004120393
[0008]
[Equation 3]
Figure 2004120393
In the panel image quality inspection device 14, the color video camera 12 receives the chromaticity and luminance information from the chromaticity / luminance measuring device 13 when the object 11 emits each color and the state of each color emission similarly. The following processing is performed based on the level information of the R, G, and B video signals.
[0009]
The actual chromaticity (x, y) and luminance (Y) information measured by the chromaticity / luminance measuring device 13 at the time of each color emission is substituted by transforming the equation (1), and the actual tristimulus values (X, Y, Z).
That is,
The actual chromaticity (x, y) and luminance (Y) information measured by the chromaticity / luminance measuring device 13 when the measurement target 11 emits red light is substituted into the tristimulus value ( Xr, Yr, Zr) are calculated by the panel image quality inspection apparatus 14 by calculation processing. Similarly,
The actual chromaticity (x, y) and luminance (Y) information measured by the chromaticity / luminance measuring device 13 when the measurement target 11 emits green light is substituted into the tristimulus value ( Xg, Yg, Zg) are calculated by the panel image quality inspection device 14 by calculation processing. Similarly,
The actual chromaticity (x, y) and luminance (Y) information measured by the chromaticity / luminance measuring device 13 when the measurement target 11 emits blue light is substituted into the tristimulus value ( Xb, Yb, and Zb) are calculated by the panel image quality inspection device 14 by calculation processing. Similarly,
The actual chromaticity (x, y) and luminance (Y) information measured by the chromaticity / luminance measuring device 13 when the measurement target 11 emits white light is substituted into the tristimulus value ( Xw, Yw, and Zw) are calculated by the panel image quality inspection device 14 by calculation processing.
[0010]
Next, the output video signals R, G, and B levels of the color video camera 12 at the time of each color emission are stored in the panel image quality inspection device 14.
The output video signal levels of the color video camera 12 when the measurement target 11 emits red light are Rr, Gr, and Br for each of R, G, and B components,
The output video signal levels of the color video camera 12 when the measurement object 11 emits green light are Rg, Gg, and Bg for each of the R, G, and B components.
The output video signal levels of the color video camera 12 when the measurement object 11 emits blue light are Rb, Gb, and Bb for each of R, G, and B components.
When the measurement target 11 emits white light, the output video signal levels of the color video camera 12 are set to Rw, Gw, and Bw for each of the R, G, and B components, and are stored by the panel image quality inspection device 14.
[0011]
The predetermined constant matrices Ar, Ag, Ab, and Aw in each case are obtained by substituting the tristimulus values for each color emission obtained above and the output video signal level of the color video camera 12 by modifying the equation (2). Further, a predetermined constant matrix A is obtained by performing a root mean square process. This is the calibration stage.
[0012]
After that, it enters the measurement stage. In the measurement stage, the chromaticity / luminance measuring device 13 is disconnected from the panel image quality inspection device 14 as shown in FIG. 3B, and the R, G, and B outputs of the color video camera 12 at the time of emission of each color. From the video signal level and the predetermined constant matrix A obtained above, a tristimulus value is obtained in the panel image quality inspection apparatus 14 by the equation (2), and the chromaticity (x, x, y) The luminance (Y) is calculated by a calculation process, and from the chromaticity luminance value, the unevenness of the phosphor application state at a plurality of places of the same measurement object 11 is inspected or a plurality of sheets are inspected ( It does not relate to the invention known in the literature.).
[0013]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
In the above-described conventional technique, in the chromaticity / luminance measurement obtained by performing a calculation process based on the output video signals R, G, and B of the color video camera in the panel image quality inspection apparatus, the chromaticity / luminance measurement value may have a large variation. As a result, a false report that a non-defective product is determined as a defective product or a defective product is determined as a non-defective product in the inspection of the phosphor application state may occur. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION It is an object of the present invention to establish a calibration method for improving the chromaticity / luminance measurement accuracy in the calculation processing, and to provide a panel image quality inspection apparatus with few false reports.
[0014]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
In order to achieve the above object, the present invention provides a calibration step for obtaining the predetermined constant matrix A before a measurement step for obtaining tristimulus values based on the output video signal levels R, G, B of the color video camera and the predetermined constant matrix A. In the above, a predetermined range on the chromaticity distribution is represented by a plurality of points for each color, and a predetermined constant matrix A at the time of chromaticity luminance measurement is obtained based on the plurality of points.
[0015]
BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION
The cause of the variation in the chromaticity / luminance data in the chromaticity / luminance measurement of the prior art is due to an error included in the predetermined constant matrix A in the calculation processing for obtaining the predetermined constant matrix A of the determinant of the above equation (2). Therefore, by reducing the error, the variation of the chromaticity luminance data of the chromaticity luminance measurement can be suppressed.
[0016]
As one embodiment of the present invention, a method for improving the means for calculating the predetermined constant matrix A of the determinant of Formula 1 will be described.
FIG. 4A shows the light receiving characteristics of the color video camera 12, and FIG. 4B shows the light receiving characteristics of the chromaticity / luminance measuring device 13, respectively. It can be seen from the figure that the respective characteristics are similar. In addition, as shown in FIG. 5, a display such as a plasma display mixes red (R), green (G), and blue (B) emission characteristics to perform color display expression. ), Green (G), blue (B) and white, and measuring the change in chromaticity and luminance are effective as means for evaluating and inspecting the display.
[0017]
Therefore, conventionally, the measurement object 11 is caused to emit red (R), green (G), blue (B), and white light, and one predetermined constant matrix A corresponding to each light emission is obtained by a calculation process. Although the stimulus value has been determined, a predetermined constant matrix Ar for red (R), a predetermined constant matrix Ag for green (G), a predetermined constant matrix Ab for blue (B), and a predetermined constant matrix Aw for white are individually obtained. In the calculation process, the predetermined constant matrix A corresponding to each color is obtained not from one representative point of the chromaticity distribution of each color but from a plurality of points, for example, 5 points of chromaticity distribution for each color. Thus, the light receiving characteristics of the color video camera 12 shown in FIG. 4A can be approximated by the light receiving characteristics of the chromaticity / luminance measuring device 13 shown in FIG. 4B.
It is known that the chromaticity of a color is distributed on the chromaticity x and chromaticity y axes as shown in FIG. As shown in FIG. 2, the chromaticities of red, green, and blue are distributed, and the chromaticity of white is distributed substantially at the center. Reference numeral 6 denotes a chromaticity distribution around green, 7 denotes a chromaticity distribution around blue, 8 denotes a chromaticity distribution around red, and 9 denotes a chromaticity distribution around white.
[0018]
In the present invention, a plurality of points of the chromaticity peripheral distribution of each color are set as a target of the calculation of the predetermined constant matrix A.
For example, a case in which a predetermined constant matrix Ag for green is calculated for green light emission will be described with reference to FIG. The same applies to other red, blue and white light emission. FIG. 1A shows a change in the wavelength when the measurement target 11 emits a slightly different green color, and FIG. 1B shows the chromaticity distribution of FIG. 1A. is there. It is considered that the chromaticity change is mostly caused by a change in the main wavelength component in the emission characteristic of the measurement object 11 as shown in FIG. In FIG. 1B, as shown in FIG. 1B, the change is limited to a change in a predetermined area, that is, a range of the chromaticity distribution 6 around green. In the chromaticity distribution (x, y) shown in FIG. 1B, points 1 to 5 correspond to the wavelength change in FIG. For example, point 5 is a representative green point, point 2 is the most reddish green among green, and point 3 is the most blued green.
[0019]
Next, a method for obtaining the predetermined constant matrix A corresponding to each color will be described.
For example, in the case of green light emission, the drive ratio of R, G, and B is controlled in a drive circuit (not shown) of the measurement target 11 corresponding to each point in FIG. The chromaticity / luminance measuring device 13 measures the actual chromaticity / luminance in the same manner as in the prior art, and inputs the chromaticity (x, y) luminance (Y) data to the panel image quality inspection device 14. Further, the image is picked up by the color video camera 12 and the video signal levels R, G, B are input to the panel image quality inspection apparatus.

The calculation processing method in the panel image quality inspection apparatus 14 is the same as that described in the prior art, and the measured chromaticity (x, y) luminance (Y) data from the chromaticity luminance measuring device 13 and the color video camera 12 The image signal levels R, G, and B are calculated by the panel image quality inspection apparatus 14 using the above equations (1) and (2).
The tristimulus values Xr1, Yr1, Zr1 of the point 1 and the video signal levels of the output of the color video camera 12 for the R, G, B components Rr1, Gr1, Br1, the tristimulus values Xr2, Yr2, Zr2 of the point 2 and the color The video signal level of the video camera 12 output is Rr2, Gr2, Br2 for each of R, G, and B components, the tristimulus values Xr3, Yr3, Zr3 of the point 3 and the video signal level of the color video camera 12 output are R, G, Rr3, Gr3, Br3 for each B component and the tristimulus values Xr4, Yr4, Zr4 of the point 4 and the video signal level of the output of the color video camera 12 are Rr4, Gr4, Br4, and the point 5 for the R, G, and B components. Rr5, Gr5, Br in which the tristimulus values Xr5, Yr5, Zr5 and the video signal level of the output of the color video camera 12 are set for each of the R, G, B components From the above, the predetermined constants Ar1 to Ar5 at each point are obtained, and the mean square processing of the predetermined constant matrices Ar1 to 5 is further performed to obtain the final predetermined constant matrix Ar in red, that is, the object to be measured. In order to approximate that the red light emission caused by the difference in the phosphor application state of 11 is slightly different red light emission, the measurement object 11 is caused to emit light by limiting the range at a plurality of points of red chromaticity, and the chromaticity luminance The light-receiving characteristics of the color video camera 12 can be calibrated so that chromaticity and luminance data can be obtained in the same manner as actually measured by the measuring device 13.
[0021]
In this manner, the light receiving characteristics of the color video camera 12 shown in FIG. 4A are reduced to the red, green, and blue limited wavelength regions of the light receiving characteristics of the chromaticity / luminance measuring device 13 shown in FIG. By measuring the chromaticity luminance by obtaining the predetermined constant matrix A so as to be close to each other, the chromaticity luminance measurement accuracy can be improved.

【The invention's effect】
Conventionally, there is a variation in chromaticity luminance measurement, for example, every production lot of a display device such as a plasma display or every time the false alarm rate becomes high, it is necessary to perform the conventional calibration again. Although false reports were frequently generated in the automatic inspection, according to the present invention, there is no need for the above-described re-calibration, the variation in the chromaticity luminance measurement is suppressed, and in the automatic application state inspection of the phosphor by the chromaticity luminance measurement, It is possible to greatly reduce the false alarm rate and improve the reliability of the automatic inspection.
