ABSTRACT:
An infrared communications device includes a novel infrared-triggered phosphor which stores energy in the form of visible light of a first wavelength and releases energy in the form of visible light of a second wavelength when triggered by infrared light. Modulated infrared input signals produce modulated visible light output signals which are supplied through a photomultiplier to amplification and demodulation circuitry. The phosphor is a composition comprising an alkaline earth metal sulfide, rare earth dopants, and a fusible salt.
