Abstract
Abstract A luminescent screen provided with a luminescent material having the hexagonal crystal structure, which material is an aluminate, a gallate or an aluminate gallate. The crystal structure of the luminescent material corresponds to that of at least one of the compounds β-aluminium, β"-alumina and the hexagonal ferrites. The luminescent material is activated by at least one of the elements manganese, europium, lead, thallium, cerium, indium, terbium, dysprosium and bismuth and is a ternary compound whose composition can be represented in the ternary phase diagram ABC in which A represents at least one of the oxides 1/4Na 2 O, 1/2K 2 O, 1/2Rb 2 O, 1/2Cs 2 O, CaO, SrO, BaO, 1/2La 2 O 3 , 1/2Ce 2 O 3 , 1/2Tb 2 O 3 , 1/2Dy 2 O 3 , 1/2Bi 2 O 3 , EuO, PbO, 1/2Tl 2 O and 1/2In 2 O, in which B represents at least one of the oxides Al 2 O 3 and Ga 2 O 3 in which up to 25 mol. % of the oxides denoted by B may be replaced by Sc 2 O.sub. 3 and in which C represents at least one of the oxides MgO, ZnO, BeO, 1/2LiAlO 2 and 1/2LiGaO 2 . The content of A is more than zero and less than that of B and the content of C is more than zero and less than 0.6.
