“…Recently, luminescent properties of inorganic phosphors have been extensively investigated to make flat panel displays more commercially available [1,2]. It is highly desirable to develop novel low-voltage phosphors with high efficiency and chemical stability under electron beam bombardment in a high-vacuum system for next generation field emission displays [3,4].…”

“…In liquid crystal display panels (see below), phosphors serve as a backlighting source excited by ultraviolet light. In electroluminescent (EL) display technology, pixels or a backlighting panel can be excited by electrical current (37)(38)(39)(40)(41). The conditions under which phosphors are required to operate present challenges.…”

The Computer as a Materials Science Benchmark

When initially asked to prepare this Viewpoints piece on materials science, we selected the computer for the story line because of the breadth of materials it encompasses and its profound effect upon our lives. In no way, however, were we prepared for just how rapidly the materials and technologies associated with this remarkable tool are changing. During the four months over which this article was written-from our initial outline in August 1997 until the time it was completed in December 1997-it seemed that each time we developed a draft, a new technology was announced: IBM, for example, trumpeted a shift from aluminum to copper conductors in integrated circuits and introduced new magnetic read heads based on the giant magnetoresistance phenomenon during this period. Both of these advances will lead to faster, more powerful computers. Thus, writing this article has given us a distinctly unsettling but nonetheless exhilarating sense of how rapidly materials science is moving. We will not be surprised if, by the time you read this article, some of the materials and processes described will already have been outperformed and displaced, as suggested by the logarithmic plots that dot the landscape of this article. But what we hope will be conveyed is the breakneck pace at which this field is moving, and the vast potential and excitement it holds for all of us.

“…Therefore, due to its high luminous efficiency, it has received a great importance in the phosphor display industry. This phosphor was combined together with ZnS:Mn, an orange-yellow emitting phosphor, to realize full colour EL panels [16]. However, very few information is available on the precise nature of co-dopants and charge compensator, which influences the luminescent properties of Ce 3+ in the lattice upon excitation [17,18].…”
