Abstract
To provide a stable phosphor with a high brightness and little luminous degradation, a phosphor comprises yttrium, aluminum (a part or the whole of aluminum may be replaced with gallium), and oxygen as basic constituting elements, Tb or Ce as an activator, and the garnet structure as a crystal structure and in the curve 1-1 showing the temperature dependency of the thermoluminescence intensity, the integrated intensity of the thermoluminescence peak in the temperature range from 300K to 700K is made smaller than the integrated intensity of the thermoluminescence peak in the temperature range of less than 300K.
