Abstract
A ceramic composition is provided. The ceramic composition includes a corundum phase, and a CeAl11O18 phase. A ratio of an amount of substance of the CeAl11O18 phase with respect to a total amount of substance of the ceramic composition is not lower than 0.5 mol % and not higher than 5 mol %.
Claims8
A ceramic composition comprising a corundum phase and a CeAl11O18 phase,
- wherein:
- a ratio of an amount of substance of the CeAl11O18 phase with respect to a total amount of substance of the ceramic composition is not lower than 0.5 mol % and not higher than 5 mol %;
- the ceramic composition emits light when irradiated with excitation light;
- when the ceramic composition is irradiated with the excitation light whose peak wavelength is in a range of 250 nm to 402 nm, a peak wavelength of the light emitted from the ceramic composition is in a range of 300 nm to 550 nm;
- and
- when the ceramic composition is irradiated with excitation light whose peak wavelength is not shorter than 314 nm, peak intensity of the light emitted from the ceramic composition decreases as the peak wavelength of the excitation light increases.
