Abstract
To provide a phosphor having an emission spectrum with a broad peak in range from green color to red color, and having excellent emission efficiency and luminance. A phosphor is provided, which is given by a general composition formula expressed by MmAaBbOoNn:Z, (where element M is more than one kind of element having bivalent valency, element A is more than one kind of element having tervalent valency, element B is more than one kind of element having tetravalent valency, O is oxygen, N is nitrogen, and element Z is more than one kind of element acting as an activator.), satisfying 2.5<(a+b)/m<4.5, 0<a/m<2.0, 2.0<b/m<4.0, 0<o/m<1.0, o<n, n=2/3m+a+4/3b−2/3o.
