Abstract

An orange broad-band emitting phosphor is a titanium-activated lanthanum oxysulfide containing up to about 0.05 moles of titanium per mole of lanthanum oxysulfide host. The phosphor is prepared by incorporating titanium oxide in the desired ratio to lanthanum into the mixture at the time the lanthanum is sulfurized in the presence of an alkali metal carbonate, to form lanthanum oxysulfide.
