Abstract
A method of producing a nitride fluorescent material including a step of first heat-treating a first compound containing at least one alkaline earth metal element selected from the group consisting of Ba, Sr, Ca and Mg, a second compound containing at least one element selected from the group consisting of Eu, Ce, Tb and Mn, and a Si-containing compound, in an atmosphere containing nitrogen to obtain a calcined product of raw materials, and a step of second heat-treating the calcined product of raw materials, a Ba-containing compound, a Si-containing compound, and optionally a third compound containing at least one element selected from the group consisting of Eu, Ce, Tb and Mn, and optionally a fourth compound containing at least one alkaline earth metal element selected from the group consisting of Sr, Ca and Mg, in an atmosphere containing nitrogen to obtain a nitride fluorescent material is provided, wherein the ratio of the charge-in molar amount of Ba to the total charge-in molar amount of at least one alkaline earth metal element to be contained in the calcined product of raw materials in the step of obtaining the calcined product of raw materials is smaller than the ratio of the charge-in molar amount of Ba to the total charge-in molar amount of at least one alkaline earth metal element to be contained in the nitride fluorescent material in the step of obtaining the nitride fluorescent material.
