ABSTRACT:
The object of the present invention is to provide a phosphor which is excellent in transparency, light transmittance, luminescence efficiency and luminescent intensity and at the same time, processes for producing the phosphor. Preferred embodiments of the invention include a phosphor characterized in that phosphor particles represented by the general formula [(L)a(M)b(N)cOd:Y] are covered with an organic compound bearing at least one functional group at a terminal or side chain, wherein L is a metallic element such as Zn; M is a metallic element such as Al; N is Si or Ge; O is oxygen; Y is at least one activating agent such as Mn2+, Eu2+, Cu2+or Yb2+; and a, b, c and d are each a value satisfying the relationships 0<a≦2, 0≦b≦2, 0≦c≦2 and 2a+3b+4c=2d.
