Abstract

The disclosed display apparatus comprises a novel high intensity broadband-emitting phosphor. The phosphor is single crystal material in which Tb acts as sensitizer of Ce, the activator. The composition of the phosphor is (Y.sub.3-x-y-z Ce.sub.x Tb.sub.y RE.sub.z) Al.sub.5-w X.sub.w O.sub.12, where RE is one or more 4f-type rare earths other than Y, Ce, and Tb, X is Sc, Ga, or In, and 0<x.ltoreq.0.06, 0<y.ltoreq.0.5, 0.ltoreq.z.ltoreq.2, 0.ltoreq.w.ltoreq.3. In preferred embodiments z and w are either zero, or RE is Lu and X is Ga. The phosphor is typically grown epitaxially by LPE on a Y.sub.3 Al.sub.5 O.sub.12 substrate, and has application in a variety of apparatus, including aircraft cockpit head-up displays and flight simulators.
