In general, the screen of a color picture tube has a phosphor screen in which blue, green, and red light-emitting phosphors that emit blue, green, and red light when stimulated by an electron beam are attached to a face plate in the form of dots or stripes. By scanning the phosphor screen with an electron beam from an electron gun, the phosphor emits light, thereby displaying an image. By the way, in recent years, with the development of computers, personal computers, etc., and the implementation of text multiplex broadcasting, etc., the use of displaying characters on color picture tubes has increased, and color picture tubes have increasingly been required to have high-luminance images. In order to realize this, the resolution is increased by reducing the dot diameter of the phosphor on the phosphor screen and increasing the number of dots on the entire screen. However, when the dot diameter is reduced and the number of dots is increased, the light emitting area of each dot on the phosphor screen is reduced, and the screen becomes dark. Therefore, in order to maintain the conventional brightness, it is necessary to increase the voltage of the electron beam to emit an electron beam having a higher current density to the phosphor screen. Also, since the projection tube displays an image on an extremely large screen, in order to brighten the display surface, the stimulation energy of the phosphor is increased, that is, the projection is stimulated at a high current density.
In this region, a luminance characteristic in which the current density and the emission luminance have a linear relationship is required, and a phosphor which is used at a high current density and has little luminance degradation is required. As a phosphor for improving current density characteristics, a zinc sulfide phosphor obtained by mixing a cubic silver and aluminum activated zinc sulfide phosphor and a hexagonal phosphor has been developed (Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 62-95378). Gazette). However, the phosphor disclosed in this publication is a mixture of a cubic system having excellent high current density characteristics and a hexagonal system having high emission luminance of 0.5 to 12%, and having a high emission luminance and a high current density. A phosphor with excellent characteristics is realized. However,
Since most of the phosphor is occupied by the cubic system, the luminance is low as a whole. The present applicant has developed a zinc sulfide phosphor having improved burning characteristics by adding boron without substantially lowering the emission luminance (Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 62-201990). However, although this zinc sulfide phosphor shows excellent burning characteristics, it does not have sufficient current characteristics, and cannot realize characteristics favorable as a zinc sulfide phosphor used in a high current density region. That is, in a low current density region, the emission luminance increases in proportion to the current density. However, when the current density increases, the luminous efficiency does not increase in proportion to the increase in the current density. There is a problem that luminance saturation occurs due to density.

[Problems to be solved by the present invention] As a result of further experiments, the present inventors have controlled the amount of activated silver to a specific range, and made the crystal structure cubic.
Furthermore, by simultaneously satisfying many conditions of including bromine and aluminum in addition to boron as a co-activator, the drawbacks of the conventional zinc sulfide phosphor have been remarkably improved. Accordingly, an important object of the present invention is to provide a bright zinc sulfide phosphor which has improved linearity of light emission and emission in a high current density region, has less luminance degradation when used at a high voltage, has a long life and is bright. It is in.

The present inventors have set the activator of the zinc sulfide phosphor to Ag, the coactivator to Al, B, and Br to adjust the activator amount of Ag to a specific range in order to achieve the above object. Furthermore, by making the crystal production cubic, a zinc sulfide phosphor with good luminous efficiency in a high current density region and little luminance degradation was completed. That is, the present invention relates to a silver activated, Al, B, Br co-activated zinc sulfide phosphor, wherein the zinc sulfide phosphor is Ag, A
It contains l, B, and Br, the activation amount of Ag is specified in the range of 0.03% by weight to 0.20% by weight, and further, the crystal structure constituting the phosphor is specified to be cubic. In the cubic zinc sulfide phosphor of the present invention, the activation amount of Ag is low.
When the content is more than 0.20% by weight, the linearity of the light emission luminance in the high current density region shows preferable characteristics, but the light emission luminance in the low current density region decreases. Conversely, when the activation amount of Ag is less than 0.03% by weight, the emission luminance in the low current density region increases, but the linearity of the emission luminance in the high current density region deteriorates. When stimulated by an accelerated electron beam, the luminance is significantly deteriorated and the life is shortened. Therefore, in the zinc sulfide phosphor of the present invention, the content of Ag is usually set to 0.03% by weight to 0.20% by weight, preferably 0.06% by weight in consideration of the linearity of current density and emission luminance and the life characteristics.
The weight is adjusted to the range of 0.1% to 0.12% by weight. Further, the zinc sulfide phosphor is obtained by adding an alkali metal salt containing at least one element of Li, Na, and K to a phosphor raw material, and then adding a gas containing at least one of carbon disulfide, hydrogen sulfide, and sulfur vapor. It is manufactured by firing.

All of these materials are sufficiently mixed and then dried to obtain a phosphor material. Next, the obtained phosphor raw material mixture is filled in a heat-resistant container such as a quartz crucible and fired. The calcination is performed in a strongly reducing atmosphere in a gas containing at least one of carbon disulfide, hydrogen sulfide and sulfur vapor. The sintering temperature was set at 600 to make the crystal structure cubic.

Furthermore, as a result of measuring the burning characteristics of the zinc sulfide phosphor prototyped in this example, the brightness of the conventional phosphor was reduced to 85% after the forced test, but the brightness was reduced to only 91%. And excellent burning characteristics.
