Abstract: Disclosed is a phosphor for displays which is characterized by being composed of a europium-activated thiogallate phosphor represented by the following chemical formula: SrGa2S4:Eu. This phosphor is also characterized by containing no gallium sulfide (Ga2S3) and being a green phosphor which emits light when excited by an electron beam having an accelerating voltage of 5-15 kV. Consequently, this invention provides a phosphor for displays having high luminance, which emits light when excited by a pulse electron beam having an accelerating voltage of 5-15 kV.
