The phosphor using NH 4F as a flux has good crystallinity and large particle size, its stability against water and other atmospheric components is enhanced, and its afterglow is longer and fluorescent intensity is more intense than those of the phosphor using NH 4Cl as flux. Their PL intensities varied with time in moist air were measured, no remarkable change was found for those prepared with NH 4F flux in contrast with NH 4Cl as flux. So using NH 4F as flux is a good method to enhance the stability of alkaline earth sulfides.展开更多
