Abstract

Luminescence spectra of zinc sulfide luminophore activated by ten rare earth elements and their relative yield of cathodoluminescence in the visible region are studied at room temperature. The effect of the conditions of synthesis is studied. Using ZnS · CdS-Ho phosphor as an example, the marked effect of a change in lattice constant and the width of the forbidden zone on luminescence of rare earth centers is shown.
