Abstract

This invention provides a phosphor capable of emitting a white light by itself and a light emitting module using the phosphor. A white light emitting phosphor is represented by the following formula, and it is preferable that an excitation peak wavelength may be in a range of 350 to 420 nm: Ba4−x−y−zMgxSi2O8: Euy, Mnz (0.7≦x<1, 0<y and 0<z). The white light emitting phosphor can constitute the light emitting module with a semiconductor light emitting device having an emission peak wavelength from 350 to 420 nm.
