Abstract
An optical wavelength conversion member and a light-emitting device including the optical wavelength conversion member. The light-emitting device () includes a container (), a light-emitting element (), and an optical wavelength conversion member (). The optical wavelength conversion member () is composed of a polycrystalline ceramic sintered body containing, as main components, AlOcrystal grains and crystal grains of a component represented by formula ABO:Ce. Specifically, A and B of the ABOindividually represent at least one element selected from the following element groups: A: Sc, Y, and lanthanoids (except for Ce), and B: Al and Ga; the at least one element selected from the element groups is present in each crystal grain and the crystal grain boundary of the ceramic sintered body; and the element concentration of the crystal grain boundary is higher than the element concentration of the crystal grain.
