Abstract
Disclosed are terbium-activated oxide phosphors having incorporated, at least one of ytterbium, thulium, samarium and europium. Incorporation of the element (s) has made it possible to produce phosphors exhibiting high brightness and suffering little brightness deterioration under high-density electron bombardment.
