Abstract

Abstract Fluorescent compositions which contain zinc oxide and one phosphor selected from the group hereinafter defined in a weight ratio within the range of 1/9 to 9/1, and fluorescent display devices having said fluorescent compositions in the form of a fluorescent screen, which can emit green, blue or red light under low-velocity electron excitation, said group consisting of a copper and aluminium activated zinc cadmium sulfide phosphor [(Zn 1-x , Cd x )S:Cu, Al, wherein 0≦x≦0.1], a cerium activated yttrium aluminium gallium oxide phosphor [Y 3 (Al 1-y , Ga y ) 5 O 12 :Ce, wherein 0≦y≦0.5], a manganese activated zinc silicate phosphor (Zn 2 SiO 4 :Mn), a terbium activated yttrium lanthanum oxysulfide phosphor [(Y 1-z , La z ) 2 O 2 S: Tb, wherein 0≦z≦1], a europium activated strontium gallium sulfide phosphor (SrGa 2 S 4 :Eu 2+ ), a silver activated zinc sulfide phosphor (ZnS:Ag), and a europium activated yttrium oxysulfide phosphor (Y 2 O 2 S:Eu).
