Abstract

An emergency lighting element includes a planar, electrically operable radiation source for planar emission of electromagnetic radiation at a front side of the radiation source; and a long-afterglow layer over a whole area on the front side of the radiation source. A penetration depth into the long-afterglow layer for radiation emitted by the radiation source corresponds at least to a thickness of the long-afterglow layer. The long-afterglow layer comprises phosphorescent material, an absorption spectrum of the long-afterglow layer at least partly overlaps an emission spectrum of the radiation source and an emission spectrum of the long-afterglow layer lies substantially in a visible range.
