Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2006059260A1] An illumination system, comprising a radiation source and a fluorescent material comprising at least one phosphor capable of absorbing a part of light emitted by the radiation source and emitting light of wavelength different from that of the absorbed light; wherein said at least one phosphor is a yellow red-emitting ytterbium(II)-activated oxonitridosilicate of general formula (Sr<SUB>1-x-y-z</SUB>Ca<SUB>x</SUB>Ba<SUB>y</SUB>)<SUB>a</SUB>Si<SUB>b</SUB>Al<SUB>c</SUB>N<SUB>d</SUB>O<SUB>e</SUB>:Yb<SUB>z</SUB>, wherein 0 = x = l; 0 = y = l; 0.001 < z < 0.2; 0 < a < 2; 0 < b = 2; 0 < c = 2; 0 < d < 7; 0 < e < 2 can provide light sources having high luminosity and color-rendering index, especially in conjunction with a light emitting diode as a radiation source. The red to yellow -emitting ytterbium(II)-activated oxonitridosilicate of general formula (Sr<SUB>1-x-y-z</SUB>Ca<SUB>x</SUB>Ba<SUB>y</SUB>)<SUB>a</SUB>Si<SUB>b</SUB>Al<SUB>c</SUB>N<SUB>d</SUB>O<SUB>e</SUB>:Yb<SUB>z</SUB>, wherein 0 = x = l; 0 = y = l; 0.001 < z < 0.2; 0 < a = 2; 0 < b = 2; 0 < c < 2; 0 < d < 7; 0 < e < 2 is efficiently excitable by primary radiation in the near UV-to-blue range of the electromagnetic spectrum.
