Phosphor and manufacturing method for the same, and light source
View Patent ↗A phosphor, which is given by a general composition formula expressed by MmAaDdOoNn:Z, (wherein element M is at least one kind of element having bivalent valency, element A is at least one kind of element having tervalent valency selected from the group consisting of Al, Ga, In, Tl, Y, Sc, P, As, Sb, and Bi, element D is Si and/or Ge, O is oxygen, N is nitrogen, and element Z is at least one kind of element selected from rare earth elements or transitional metal elements, satisfying m>0, a>0, b>0 o≧0, and n=2/3 m+a+4/3b−2/3o), where a content of the element Fe is smaller than 200 ppm.
1. A phosphor, which is given by a composition formula expressed by Ca 0.98 AlSiN 3 :Eu 0.02 , wherein a content of the element Fe is smaller than 200 ppm.
2. A manufacturing method of the phosphor according to claim 1 , comprising steps of:
each of raw materials of the phosphor is weighed and mixed,
the mixed raw materials are fired, and
the fired object obtained by the firing is pulverized up to a predetermined average particle size,
wherein the raw materials contain 100 ppm or less of element Fe.
3. The manufacturing method of phosphor according to claim 2 , wherein a nitride of Group II element expressed by a general formula M 3 N 2 containing 100 ppm or less of element Fe (where the element M is Ca) is used as the raw material of phosphor.
4. The manufacturing method of phosphor according to claim 3 , wherein the nitride of group II element is manufactured by nitriding a simple substance of 2N or more containing 100 ppm or less of element Fe in a nitrogen atmosphere or in an ammonia atmosphere at the temperature of 300° C. or more.
5. A light emitting device comprising the phosphor according to claim 1 and a light emitting part which emits a light having a predetermined wavelength, wherein the phosphor emits a light having a different wavelength from the predetermined wavelength, using a part of the light having the predetermined wavelength as an excitation light.
6. The light emitting device according claim 5 , wherein the predetermined wavelength is 300 nm to 550 nm.
