Abstract

A fluorescent material and a display device incorporating the fluorescent material are described. The fluorescent material is a mixture including a phosphor which is excitable at a voltage of 1 kV or higher for emitting light and a phosphor which is excitable at a voltage of 1 kV or lower for emitting light, wherein each phosphor emits light of the same color and the fluorescent material is luminous at an anode voltage of 2 kV or lower. The fluorescent display device accelerates electrons emitted from an electron source at an anode voltage of 2 kV or lower and rushes these electrons against an anode for exciting the fluorescent material present on the anode. The fluorescent material is a mixture as set forth above.
