Abstract

Abstract This application relates to red emitting phosphors of the formula Li 1 -x Ca 2x Al 5 -x O 8 :Fe + 3 or LiCa x Al 5 -2x Si x O 8 :Fe + 3 wherein 0.005≦x≦0.25. These phosphors may be used in fluorescent lamps or in cathodoluminescent screens for cathode-ray tubes where red emission is desired.
