Abstract:Phosphors made from inorganic oxides and activated with rare earth metals are usedin numerous practical contexts. These include cathode ray tubes, high-efficiency luminouslights, x-ray radiography screens, field emission display panels, and many more.Inorganic phosphor compounds come in a wide variety of forms and have a wide variety ofpracticalapplications. Because of their many advantageous characteristics, including highquantumefficiency, long persistence of the phosphorescence, good stability, and the fact… Show more
