摘要:
An improved fine grained zinc sulfide phosphor is provided for use in ac electroluminescent displays. The fine-grained zinc sulfide phosphor film exhibits improved luminance and may be used in conjunction with a structure or substance to minimize or prevent reaction of the fine grained phosphor with oxygen. The invention is particularly applicable to zinc sulfide phosphors used in electroluminescent displays that employ thick dielectric layers subject to high processing temperatures to form and activate the phosphor films.

The disclosure describes a thin film EL device including a luminescent layer made of column polycrystals formed by independently evaporating luminescent host material and an activator and then combining the evaporated substances on a substrate. Electrons in the luminescent layer which are accelerated by an electric field applied from the outside efficiently collide against the activator without being intercepted by interfaces between crystalline particles. The thin film EL device of the present invention can be used for display, illumination, writing, reading out, and erasure of signals of photorecording mediums.
摘要:
A novel sub-structure of a thick film dielectric electroluminescent display and a thick film dielectric electroluminescent display incorporating the same is provided. The sub-structure comprises a barrier layer between a substrate and a thick film dielectric layer. The barrier layer is chemically inert with respect to the substrate and the thick film dielectric layer and the barrier layer inhibits diffusion of at least one chemical species therethrough. This sub-structure results in a higher capacitance for the thick dielectric layer, which provides higher display luminance and a reduced tendency for dielectric breakdown of the thick dielectric layer. The barrier layer permits for lower cost substrates, such as glass, to be used.

A process for producing an electroluminescence element provided with a luminescent layer sandwiched between two electrodes on an insulating substrate, the luminescent layer being composed of a host material with a luminescent center element added. The process comprises a step of forming the aforesaid luminescent layer as a film onto the insulating substrate by either sputtering or evaporation, by use of a source material composed of a compound of an element of Group II and an element of Group VI, to which a halide of a rare earth element is added as the luminescent center element. The atmosphere at the time of the film formation contains either a halogen gas or halide gas. The aforesaid luminescent layer is formed as a film onto the insulating substrate by either sputtering or evaporation, by use of a source material composed of the aforesaid compound of an element of Group II and an element of Group VI, to which a fluoride or fluorine compound of the luminescent center element and a halide other than fluoride of the element of Group II are added. The film formation atmosphere may be pretreated with a chlorine-containing gas prior to a film formation step of forming the luminescent layer as a film onto the insulating substrate by a sputtering method by use of a source material composed of the host material with the luminescent center element. An electro-luminescence element is further disclosed, wherein the X-ray diffraction spectrum thereof has only a single peak at an X-ray diffraction angle from the luminescent layer, ranging from 25.degree. to 30.degree. according to a thin film X-ray diffraction measuring method using Cu-Kd radiation, and no other peaks of the X-ray diffraction spectrum exist at an X-ray diffraction angle of approximately 27.degree..

By adding a predetermined amount of Cl as mentioned above, the luminescent efficiency and luminescent brightness of the electroluminescent device can be improved.
摘要:
A process for the production of metal oxide nanocrystalline phosphors activated with a rare earth, line emitting, element. The nanocrystal oxides are produced by a sol-gel like process. The process begins with an n-butoxide solution of the host and activator which is first subject to acetolysis which will cause the pH of the solution to change from basic to acidic. This is followed by the addition of water in a hydrolysis step which forms a host/activator hydroxide solution. To the host/activator hydroxide solution, sodium hydroxide, which is very basic, is added, which will cause the precipitation of host oxide nanocrystals activated with the activator. The host/activator n-butoxide precursors may be synthesized by azeotropic distillation.
