TECHNICAL FIELD OF THE INVENTION This invention relates to multi-sulfide red-emitting phosphors. (Technical background of the invention and its problems) A calcium sulfide phosphor (hereinafter referred to as CaS) activated with a rare earth element is a phosphor that emits light with high efficiency when excited by an electron beam or ultraviolet rays. CaS activated with europium or europium and cerium is a red-emitting phosphor with a main emission wavelength of 653 nm, and as shown in Japanese Patent Publication No. 47-38747, it is a red-emitting component for color cathode ray tubes. It is expected to be used as a fluorescent substance. However, the red light emitted by this CaS-based phosphor is somewhat too close to the long wavelength side for a red light emitting component for a color cathode ray tube. In other words, compared to europium-activated yttrium oxysulfide phosphor (Y 2 O 2 S: Eu) or europium-activated yttrium oxide phosphor (Y 2 O 3 :Eu), which are usually used as red components, the above CaS-based The phosphor exhibits a deeper red emission. Electron beam excitation (acceleration voltage
If the luminescent color at 10 KV and current density of 1 μA/cm 3 is expressed by the xy chromaticity of the CIE display system, Y 2 O 2 S: Eu (x = 0.652,
y=0.346) , Y2O3 :Eu(x=0.642, y=0.352)
and CaS: Eu, Ce (x=0.690, y=0.309). For this reason, the visual luminance is lower than that of current color cathode ray tubes.
Y 2 O 2 S: It is low, about 50% of Eu red phosphor, and currently it is considered difficult to apply CaS: Eu, Ce phosphor. (Object of the Invention) The present invention provides a method using europium or europium and a cerium-activated CaS red-emitting phosphor as a matrix.
It is an object of the present invention to provide a novel multi-component sulfide red-emitting phosphor with improved chromaticity and visual brightness. (Summary of the Invention) The present invention provides a multi-component sulfide activated with europium or europium and cerium, which is represented by the general formula (Ca 1-x K x/2 M〓 x/2 )S: aEu, bCe. It is a red-emitting phosphor. However, M〓 is at least one element of Y or Gd. The activator concentration is determined from the viewpoint of luminous efficiency.
10 -4 a10 -2 and 0b10 -3 are preferred.
In addition, the mixed crystal ratio x is determined from the viewpoint of chromaticity and luminous efficiency.
0.15x0.6 is desirable. That is, if the amount is less than this amount, no improvement in chromaticity will be observed, and if it exceeds this amount, the perceived luminance will be significantly reduced and the chromaticity will also deviate from the ideal red color. In the course of experiments in which co-activators were introduced into europium or europium and cerium-activated CaS phosphors, the inventors discovered that the emission spectrum changes when certain group elements and group elements are simultaneously added. Ta. In other words, by simultaneously introducing at least one group element, yttrium (Y) or gadolinium (Gd), and potassium (K), a group element, into the CaS matrix, the luminous efficiency decreases within a certain range of addition amount. The present invention was completed based on the discovery that the visual luminance was improved by more than 100%. Furthermore, a report on the addition of yttrium or gadolinium to CaS was published by W. Lehmann in the Journal of Luminescence (J. of Luminescence).
Luminescence, 5/87, 1972).
Both yttrium and gadolinium have emission spectra with main emission wavelengths in the near-ultraviolet region. Therefore, the phosphor according to the present invention is essentially different from the phosphor according to the present invention, in which the luminescence spectrum caused by europium can be shifted to the shorter wavelength side and the perceived luminance can be improved by simultaneously adding a group element and a group element. be. In Figure 1, the horizontal axis is the mixed crystal ratio x of the phosphor according to the present invention, and the main emission wavelength of the phosphor (curve a) with respect to x.
is the scale of the left vertical axis, relative luminous luminance (curve b)
FIG. As shown in FIG. 1, if the amounts of the group and group elements introduced into the CaS matrix are within a certain range, an improvement in luminous luminance can be seen that outweighs a decrease in luminous efficiency. From this,
By changing the main emission wavelength of the phosphor by a desired amount within the permissible range of the red reproduction range of the color cathode ray tube, it has become possible to obtain a phosphor with improved visual luminance. (Examples of the Invention) The present invention will be described below based on Examples. Example 1 Europium and cerium each at 1.4×
Calcium oxalate containing 10 −3 mol and 7.1×10 −5 mol is calcined in hydrogen sulfide at 1200° C. for 2 hours. Add 0.7 mol of the obtained sulfide, 0.075 mol of yttrium oxide, 0.075 mol of potassium sulfate, and 0.05 mol of ammonium chloride as a flux and mix thoroughly.
The mixture was calcined at 1100°C for 3 hours in a 1:1 mixed gas of hydrogen and hydrogen sulfide, resulting in Ca 0.7 K 0.15 Y 0.15
S: Obtain Eu, Ce phosphor. Table 1 shows the relative luminance characteristics and xy chromaticity characteristics of this phosphor. Examples 2 and 3 Also in Examples 2 and 3, europium and cerium were added to calcium oxalate so that the concentration in the final phosphor was 10 -3 mol and 5 x 10 -3 mol in terms of CaS. . For 0.6 mol and 0.5 mol of sulfide obtained by the same calcination method as in Example 1 above, yttrium acid and potassium sulfate were added to 0.2 mol and 0.25 mol, respectively, and the same calcination as above was carried out. 0.2 S: Eu,
Ce (Example 2) and Ca 0.5 K 0.25 Y 0.25 S: Eu, Ce
(Example 3) A phosphor was obtained. When these phosphors are excited with an electron beam at an accelerating voltage of 10 KV and a current density of 1 μA/cm 2 , the relative luminous luminance and The xy chromaticity is shown in Table 1.

The xy chromaticity is shown in Table 1. (Effects of the Invention) As described above, the multi-component sulfide phosphor activated with europium or europium and cerium according to the present invention is a red-emitting phosphor with improved luminance as shown in Table 1. . Furthermore, the matrix of this phosphor is colored red due to light absorption by the activator, so there is no need to specially attach a red pigment. In other words, in recent years, red pigments have been attached to red-emitting phosphors for color television for the purpose of improving contrast, but as a result, brightness has been reduced due to the attached pigments being non-luminescent substances or due to the pigment attachment treatment. The decline is significant. Therefore, the phosphor according to the present invention is a good phosphor in that a similar contrast can be obtained even without such treatment. It has also been found that this phosphor exhibits little reduction in brightness due to temperature rise. This good temperature characteristic is a desirable characteristic for a phosphor used under conditions of high excitation current density, such as in high-definition television or projection television.
