Abstract

To provide a phosphor for manufacturing an one chip type LED illumination, etc, by combining a near ultraviolet/ultraviolet LED and a blue LED, and having an excellent emission efficiency including luminance. The phosphor is given as a general composition formula expressed by MmAaBbOoNn:Z, (where element M is one or more kinds of elements having bivalent valency, element A is one or more kinds of elements having tervalent valency, element B is one or more kinds of elements having tetravalent valency, O is oxygen, N is nitrogen, and element Z is one or more kinds of elements acting as an activator.), satisfying a=(1+x)×m, b=(4−x)×m, o=x×m, n=(7−x)×m, 0≦x≦1, wherein when excited by light in a wavelength range from 300 nm to 500 nm, the phosphor has an emission spectrum with a peak wavelength in a range from 500 nm to 620 nm.
